Albanese urged to secure meeting with Trump amid AUKUS review
Shadow Environment and Youth Minister Angie Bell discusses the Pentagon's review of the AUKUS deal, urging Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to secure a meeting with US President Donald Trump. 'The majority of Australians do believe that our relationship with the United States is way more important than one prime minister or and one president,' Ms Bell told Sky News host Paul Murray. 'Our relationship does go way back … we have had each other's backs for a long time. 'We do have the AUKUS agreement in place that the United States is looking at now reviewing, I would say that this is never more important than ever in our history that the Prime Minister does secure a meeting with the President at the G7.'

Trump administration using AUKUS review to pressure Albanese on defence spending
Sky News host Sharri Markson has suggested the Trump administration is allegedly using the AUKUS review as leverage to pressure Prime Minister Anthony Albanese into boosting defence spending. 'The United States President and his officials are frustrated, firstly Albanese's refusal to increase defence spending,' Ms Markson said. 'Secondly, his flippant attitude that defence is an issue of sovereignty, and they're concerned about his commitment to the alliance and his refusal to robustly call out China's aggressions in our region. 'Confidential sources told me today the Trump administration is extremely serious about needing Australia to lift its game on defence spending, and this is irrespective of Jim Chalmers' budget constraints.'
