Substantial cooperation, alongside lasting mistrust over maritime negotiations and espionage.
Australia hacia Timor Oriental
+35Australia has provided development and security assistance to Timor-Leste and played a leading role in the 1999 international intervention that helped restore security after the independence vote. It also negotiated the 2018 maritime-boundary treaty with Timor-Leste. Australia’s espionage operation during earlier maritime negotiations seriously damaged trust.
Timor Oriental hacia Australia
+30Timor-Leste pursued negotiations with Australia to settle their maritime boundary and concluded the 2018 treaty establishing it. Timor-Leste also used international conciliation to advance those negotiations. The espionage controversy remains a source of mistrust in the relationship.
Relación general
+35The relationship has a durable cooperative foundation in Australian assistance and security engagement, reinforced by the 2018 maritime-boundary settlement. However, the history of espionage during negotiations over maritime resources created a serious breach of trust. Cooperation is meaningful, but the legacy of that dispute and uncertainty around resource development arrangements remain important features.
