Australia's former top diplomat says US ambassador Kevin Rudd can work with Donald Trump, and he doesn't believe AUKUS and trade deals are under threat.
A former US ambassador says Kevin Rudd is "highly effective" and can work with Donald Trump , who called him "nasty" in a TV interview in March.Australia's trade and military ties with the United States can withstand the return of Donald Trump to the White House, a former top diplomat says, praising "outstanding" US ambassador Kevin Rudd for building relationships across the political divide.
"Rudd will be fine," Mr Richardson, who served as US ambassador under Bill Clinton and George W Bush, told Q+A on Monday night. Mr Richardson said AUKUS — the agreement with the US and UK to supply nuclear-powered submarines to Australia — would proceed. Anthony Scaramucci, a former adviser to Mr Trump before turning against him, told Q+A the former president is "a useful idiot" for Russian President Vladimir Putin.
He took more shots at Mr Trump, who fired him after 11 days as White House communications director, calling him "way more aggressive" and "way more violent" than his first White House term.
