Obama says US will boost Australia military ties
by Darius Kadivar on Wed Nov 16, 2011 12:30 AM PSTThe US was "stepping up its commitment to the entire Asia-Pacific," he said. The US sees Australia as a counter to China's growing influence, which Mr Obama urged to act "responsibly".
"We welcome a rising, peaceful China," Mr Obama said at a joint news conference with Mrs Gillard.
"The main message that I've said, not only publicly but also privately to China, is that with their rise comes increased responsibility.
"It is important for them to play by the rules of the road."Chuck Noris interviewing Frguson?! :-)
