Anti-Australian sentiment

Anti-Australian sentiment can arise from various factors including differences in religion, events outlined in the History of Australia, its domestic or foreign policies or it's involvement in various conflicts such as World War 1 or World War 2.

One of the earliest references to the specific phrase "Anti-Australian sentiment" occurred in 1983 in relation to anti-independence groups in New Caledonia.

[3] In 1948, there were anti-Australian sentiments in then-colonial Singapore by their citizens due to the treatment of one of their countrywomen.

[4] Indonesia has been alleged to have a rise in "anti-Australian sentiment" because of suggestions of Australia interfering in its internal affairs.

Many Australians and New Zealanders were highly offended by these comments and accused Erdoğan of anti-Australianism.
