Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s first face-to-face meeting with President Donald Trump is an opportunity to deliver some key messages about the role the United States should play globally and in Asia.
KEY FINDINGS
– Turnbull should emphasise the importance of a strong US leadership role in the world.
– He should make the case for the importance of acting in concert with allies and like-minded countries, especially Australia.
– Turnbull should shape the administration’s still unformed Asia policy by ensuring that the United States remains constructively engaged in the region.
