US President Donald Trump says he is "very friendly" with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who was re-elected over the weekend in a landslide victory. "We have had a very good relationship," Trump told the Sydney Morning Herald at the White House on Sunday, in his first remarks about the Australian election.

By Byron Kaye and Christine Chen SYDNEY (Reuters) -When Australian podcast host Nigel Marsh booked Prime Minister Anthony Albanese for an interview on his show, "Five of My Life", he expected a surge of listeners due to his guest's high profile and the fact that an election was looming.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese was returned to power in an election Saturday, the latest left-leaning leader to achieve a comeback victory thanks partly to President Trump.
