Australia's opposition demands transcript of call between Prime Minister Scott Morrison and US President Donald Trump as controversy mounts over a politically fraught offer to help Trump
U.S. President Donald Trump pats Australia’s Prime Minister Scott Morrison on the back as he speaks during an official arrival ceremony on the South Lawn of the White House in Washington, U.S., September 20, 2019.
Amid concern that Australia may be co-opted into helping Trump tarnish his domestic political rivals, opposition leader Anthony Albanese demanded to know what information Canberra had turned over to Washington. Australia is a long-standing security ally of the United States and close relations usually enjoy strong bipartisan support Down Under. But that consensus has been tested since Trump took office.
