Malcolm Turnbull refuses to respond to the Washington Post’s claims that US president Donald Trump told him their phone conversation was his ‘worst call by far’ with world leaders that day. The Australian PM is asked about reports Trump was upset, hung up on him and accused him of ‘trying to send the next Boston bombers’ to the US when they spoke about the two countries’ refugee deal. Turnbull says only that it is better that these conversations are conducted ‘candidly, frankly, privately’.
