Anthony Albanese has said he is “looking forward” to working with Donald Trump after being asked if he would apologize for previous comments criticizing the new US president.
The Prime Minister was recorded saying Trump “scares the hell out of me” while he was shadow transport and infrastructure minister in 2017.
Sunrise host Nat Barr suggested Albanese may need to apologize after Trump was elected US president on Wednesday night and reporters dug deeper into the matter on Thursday morning.
“No, I look forward to working with President Trump,” he said.
‘I think I have demonstrated my ability to work with world leaders and develop relationships with them, which are positive.
“And I think I have demonstrated that in the two and a half years that I have had the honor of being Prime Minister.”
More to come.
