Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese won a second term for his center-left Labor Party Saturday, defeating conservative challenger Peter Dutton in an election colored by US President Donald Trump’s trade war.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is likely to work more closely with centre-left governments in Britain and Canada, as well as other democratic allies, after a resounding election win strengthened his hand in dealing with the U.

Opposition leader Peter Dutton says he accepts 'full responsibility' for the Coalition loss, as Australian PM Anthony Albanese hails the result as a vote 'for Australian values'.
