Australian government's embarrassing defeat

 

The Australian government has suffered an embarrassing defeat in its attempts to turf the Russian government off the site of its new embassy in Canberra.  

The National Capital Authority (NCA) last year announced a decision to terminate the Russian government’s lease on a block of land in the wealthy suburb of Yarralumla, where it was building its new embassy.
