Australia’s relationship with the United States will remain strong regardless of who is elected as president later this year, according to Australian politicians. This assertion follows former U.S. President Donald Trump being found guilty of falsifying business records by a Manhattan jury.

On May 30, President Trump, the current Republican nominee, was found guilty of 34 counts of falsification of business records with the intent to conceal another crime. This verdict makes President Trump the first-ever U.S. president to be convicted of a crime.
