A place for Australians and friends to share news from the other countries. Like all communities here, we discuss topics from the Australian perspective.
If you're looking for a global /c/worldnews instead, search for the many options on federated instances.
Rules
- Follow the aussie.zone rules
- We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
- Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
- Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

playing devils advocate here, obviously we all know Trump is a brain dead removed monkey throwing shit all over the place
It's very easy to call Trump that, I could go up there and call Trump a delusional lying asshole who is betraying all his allies and making a mockery out of the west etcetc
But for a pro, you have to be able to handle these diplomatic situations to the point where the things go in your favour even if you're clearly dealing with an irrational nutter
I think that he regrets that he wasn't able to word things in a way that helped Ukraine and made Trump happy at the same time
That said I do not envy him one bit, fuck dealing with Trump for anything
