A conversation between Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Minister for Climate Affairs Chris Bowen about where to carry a mobile phone was caught on camera at the COP31 summit.
Globalinfo.az reports that during a break at the summit held in Turkey, the politicians discussed the possible harm of radio radiation from mobile phones.
Albanese, advising that the phone should not be kept close to the heart, recommended that the minister not carry the device in his jacket’s breast pocket. Bowen said he was more concerned about keeping the phone in his trouser pocket.
The prime minister jokingly asked whether the minister’s concern had to do with his genitalia. Bowen confirmed this, saying the matter was even more important to him than his heart.
The conversation was accompanied by laughter. The politicians were unaware that a camera being prepared for the filming of the official event had recorded their conversation.
