The foreign affairs minister, Penny Wong, says it was a privilege and honour" to be the first Australian foreign minister to be invited and to attend an inauguration on behalf of our country".

She spoke with the Today show from Washington DC, where she attended Donald Trump's inauguration.

My message here in Washington to those I meet is to point out the reality of the economic relationship between Australia and the United States, that there is a surplus in America's favour. There has been for decades. In fact, it's about two to one. And of those exports from Australia that come here, about half of them go into the US production.

As we know, the Wall Street Journal is obviously reporting, now [Trump is] going to review the trade situation and then look at what sort of tariff changes need to be made.

We need to make sure that our foreign affairs ministry, our trade minister and our ambassador are deeply engaged in that review process to make sure our national interest is upheld.
