The error, made during a televised debate, has drawn sharp criticism from government ministers, who accused Dutton of reckless and aggressive rhetoric on national security. The incident has escalated tensions in the ongoing election campaign, with Dutton's credibility on foreign policy now under scrutiny. Analysts suggest this misstep could significantly damage his chances against Prime Minister Anthony Albanese.
