Moving onto the Today Show, Chalmers is facing more questions about the relationship between the US and Australia.

There are a few elements to it this morning - there’s the tariff situation, the delay in the AUKUS review (which the administration announced yesterday would be completed this spring, outside the original 30-day timeline), and the fact that the US hasn’t sent over a new ambassador to Australia.
