Show Description

The global political climate has continued to change this past week. United States President Donald Trump is now being subjected to impeachment hearings in the House of Representatives. The People’s Republic of China is celebrating 70 years of the nation’s founding under Communist rule.

Australia and New Zealand have been at the centre of both major international stories. The Chinese embassy in New Zealand held a reception to celebrate the nation’s communist beginnings with senior national government politicians and bureaucrats in attendance.

It has been reported by the New York Times that Donald Trump in a phone call with Scott Morrison asked for intelligence to be passed onto his Attorney-General Bill Barr. This is related to former Australian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom Alexander Downer’s conversation with Trump campaign George Papadopoulos in 2016 where he said Russia had Hillary Clinton’s emails. This was a month before Wikileaks published them.
