Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has brushed off criticism of his leadership after being confronted by a journalist in New York on Sunday night.
Albanese was taking questions ahead of the Atlantic Council Awards in New York, where he is set to be honoured with a Global Citizen Award for his contributions on the world stage, particularly in the Pacific.
The event is being held alongside the United Nations General Assembly, where Australia launched a formal bid for a two-year term on the powerful UN Security Council in 2029 and 2030.

The exchange turned tense when a journalist questioned Albanese on whether he deserved the honour in light of his political standing in Australia, following a shock Newspoll that saw his popularity collapse.
'Prime Minister, here in New York on Wednesday night, you will receive an award for being a global citizen,' the journalist said.

'Don't you feel like a bit of a fraud accepting this award when at home you've screwed up the response to the worst massacre since Port Arthur, Labor is one point shy of where it was under Julia Gillard when you rolled her, and your net approval ratings are worse than Scott Morrison's?
asserted
ratings → feel → Morrison
'No,' he replied.

'That is why we can't afford to not be engaged with the world, because it has a direct impact on the quality of life of Australians on a day-to-day basis.
