<P>Before the <A href="/wiki/Second_World_War" class="mw-redirect" title="Second World War">Second World War</A>, the British Government handled most of Australia's foreign policy.<SUP id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-3">[3]</A></SUP> The critical decision during the war was to more closely align the military and the diplomacy with the United States. The first accredited diplomat sent to any foreign country was <A href="/wiki/Richard_Casey,_Baron_Casey" title="Richard Casey, Baron Casey">Richard Casey</A>, appointed in January 1940.<SUP id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-4">[4]</A></SUP> Since 1941, United States has been the most important ally and trading partner. Australian concluded an agreement in 1944 with New Zealand dealing with the security, welfare, and advancement of the people of the independent territories of the Pacific (the ANZAC pact).<SUP id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-5">[5]</A></SUP> After the war, Australia played a role in the Far Eastern Commission in Japan and supported Indonesian independence during that country's revolt against the Dutch (1945–49).<SUP id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-6">[6]</A></SUP></P>
<P>Australia was one of the founders of both the <A href="/wiki/United_Nations" title="United Nations">United Nations</A> and the South Pacific Commission (1947), and in 1950, it proposed the <A href="/wiki/Colombo_Plan" title="Colombo Plan">Colombo Plan</A> to assist developing countries in Asia. In addition to contributing to UN forces in the <A href="/wiki/Korean_War" title="Korean War">Korean War</A> – it was the first country to announce it would do so after the United States – Australia sent troops to assist in putting down the communist revolt in Malaya in 1948–60 and later to combat the Indonesian-supported invasion of <A href="/wiki/Sarawak" title="Sarawak">Sarawak</A> in 1963–65.<SUP id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-7">[7]</A></SUP></P>
<P>Australia sent troops to repel communism and assist South Vietnamese and American forces in the <A href="/wiki/Vietnam_War" title="Vietnam War">Vietnam War</A>, in a move that stirred up antiwar activism at home.<SUP id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-8">[8]</A></SUP> It joined coalition forces in the Persian <A href="/wiki/Gulf_War" title="Gulf War">Gulf War</A> in 1991.

<P>In 1999 Australian peace keeping forces intervened in <A href="/wiki/East_Timor" title="East Timor">East Timor</A> following its referendum to secede from Indonesia.

<P>Diplomatic relations are stressed due to North Korea's nuclear weapons program. Since October 2006 visas have not been issued for North Korean citizens and North Korean ships have been banned from Australia's ports. Economically, relations are more modest; North Korea ranks 125th in the order of Australia's trade partners, with two-way trade valued between A$6–11 million.

<P>The first Armenians migrated to Australia in the 1850s, during the gold rush. The majority came to Australia in the 1960s, starting with the Armenians of Egypt after Nasser came to power then, in the early 1970s, from Cyprus after the Turkish occupation of the island and from 1975 until 1992, a period of civil unrest in Lebanon. Person-to-person governmental links are increasing although they are still modest. In September 2003, The Hon Mr Philip Ruddock MP visited Armenia in his former capacity as Australian Minister for Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs. In October 2005, the Armenian Foreign Minister, H.E. Mr <A href="/wiki/Vardan_Oskanyan" class="mw-redirect" title="Vardan Oskanyan">Vardan Oskanyan</A>, visited Australia. In November 2005, The Hon Mr Joe Hockey MP, Minister for Human Services, visited Armenia. The Parliament of the Commonwealth of Australia has not passed a motion recognising the mass murder of Armenians in 1915 as genocide, although the State of NSW has done so. The Australian Government elections of 2007 created an atmosphere in which the Opposition Labor party declared it will push for the Recognition of the Armenian Genocide in Australian Parliament if Labor wins the Elections.<SUP class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<I><A href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><SPAN title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.
