Скачать или смотреть Dutton slams ‘delayed briefing’ over report Russia seeking Indonesian airbase

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton has hit out at Foreign Minister Penny Wong and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese when questioned about whether his recent comments have risked damaging Australia's relationship with Indonesia.

“The fact is when you have a foreign minister and a defence minister and a prime minister finding out about decisions from our friends and countries abroad … you know that this government is not up to it,” Mr Dutton said.

“We need to have open discussions and we need to make sure that the government is given forewarning.

“That hasn’t happened here. So there are a lot of details that I hope that we can get out of the briefing.

“The government has delayed the briefing, obviously, and we’ll hopefully get that briefing today.”
