DFAT released formal letters of credence exchanged between the Australian Governor-General and the US President documenting two ambassadorial transitions in April 2026. The first letter appoints Greg Moriarty AO as Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to the United States, while the second recalls Kevin Rudd AC from the same position. These are ceremonial diplomatic documents using standard formulaic language consistent with international diplomatic protocol for ambassador appointments and departures. The correspondence reflects routine bilateral relations between Australia and the United States, with no substantive policy positions or operational details disclosed beyond the personnel changes themselves.
