SYDNEY (Reuters) - Australia's ambassador in Washington, Kevin Rudd, deleted comments he previously made about Donald Trump after the Republican's election win, saying on Thursday they did not reflect the view of the Australian government.
Rudd, a former prime minister, had previously made the comments about Trump in his capacity as the head of a U.S.-based think tank, a statement on his personal website said.
