Why isn't Australia debating foreign policy at this election?

Election day is looming at a time when events beyond our borders are shaping the debate as much as the politicians are.

With no scheduled debate on foreign policy, we discuss some of the key questions confronting the nation with:

Tim Watts, the Assistant Minister for Foreign Affairs

Senator Dave Sharma 

Independent MP Zoe Daniel
