Prime Minister Scott Morrison:"There are no greater friends and no greater allies than Australia and the US."
Mr Morrison cited the defence relationship between Australia and the US and next year's 70th anniversary of the ANZUS Treaty,signed in 1951 to protect the Pacific,as reasons for confidence about the strength of the ties between the two countries.
"The President-elect was very interested in Australia's success here and what Australia could contribute from our lessons and ... the way that we have managed the COVID-19 pandemic,and the economic dimensions of that as well,"Mr Morrison told reporters.
The pair also spoke about the environmental challenges Australia and the US could work on together,"particularly in the areas of emissions-reducing technologies".
Mr Biden will commit the US to a target of net zero emissions by 2050,but Australia has not agreed to hit that mark over the next three decades.
Mr Morrison invited Mr Biden to visit Australia next year to mark the 70th anniversary of the ANZUS relationship,which he said had remained strong through many presidents and prime ministers.
Mr Morrison and his office are confident of building a strong relationship with Mr Biden,given the US leader's visit to Australia four years ago when he was vice-president in the Obama administration.
