Scott Morrison says phone call with Trump about Mueller inquiry was 'uneventful'
The Australian prime minister has dismissed a phone call with Donald Trump in which he agreed to cooperate with a probe into the Mueller inquiry as an “uneventful conversation”, as he insists Australia has “nothing to hide” from the investigation.
Arguing that it would have been “quite extraordinary” not to cooperate with the US president’s request for assistance, Scott Morrison sought to downplay the phone call that has thrust Australia into the centre of a highly political investigation into the FBI’s inquiry of alleged Russian meddling in the 2016 election.
