Australia’s shadow defence spokesman Angus Taylor is calling on Prime Minister Anthony Albanese not to sideline the nation’s relationship with the United States.

Taylor made the comments on the ABC 7.30 program on July 15, saying he supported Australia maintaining strong trade with all its trading partners, but that Australia’s U.S. relations had been sitting unattended for too long.
