Turnbull said, \u201cThe important thing is results.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spicer says Trump has agreed to honor an Obama administration deal to resettle up to 1,250 asylum seekers rejected by Australia. Trump made the agreement during a conversation with Turnbull last weekend but has since tweeted, \u201cI will study this dumb deal!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Turnbull said Trump had asked for nothing in return for resettling the mostly Muslim refugees from Africa, the Middle East and Asia. Australia pays the impoverished Pacific countries of Nauru and Papua New Guinea to keep the refugees in camps.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAbsolutely not,\u201d Turnbull said. \u201cIt\u2019s a deal obviously that President Trump has said he wouldn\u2019t have entered into, but he has committed to honor it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Turnbull said there would be no link between the refugee resettlement and any future U.S. request for military help in the Middle East or the South China Sea.<\/p>\n<p>Australia is one of the largest contributors to the U.S.-led military campaign in Iraq and Syria. It has resisted U.S. pressure to conduct freedom of navigation exercises close to artificial islands created by China in the contested South China Sea.<\/p>\n<p>The Obama administration agreed to resettle Australia\u2019s refugees after Australia agreed in September last year to accept Costa Rican refugees fleeing drug wars.<\/p>\n<p>Australian media have described the disagreement over the refugee deal as the lowest point in the bilateral alliance since 1973, when Prime Minister<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>Gough Whitlam<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>clashed with President<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>Richard Nixon<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span>over a series of bombings during the Vietnam War.<\/p>\n<p>Turnbull has welcomed U.S. support since media reports emerged of his disagreement with Trump during their first conversation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t think there has ever been more public support for Australia than there has been his week,\u201d Turnbull said. \u201cThis has been a very good week for Australia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>President Donald Trump on Thursday put new strain on ties with Australia, threatening to undermine an Obama-era agreement with the U.S. ally and publicly mischaracterizing its terms. he comments call into question the president\u2019s commitment to maintaining a refugee deal with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.
