Morrison, Widodo talk, but trade deal on hold over embassy

Prime Minister Scott Morrison has attempted to salvage a free-trade agreement between Australia and Indonesia in a meeting with President Joko Widodo at the ASEAN summit in Singapore. The deal was due to be signed this week but has been stalled since the Prime Minister announced Australia would consider relocating its embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
