US Vice President Mike Pence to tour Asia, Australia in April: report

VIDEO: Bishop meets with US Vice President Pence

US VICE President Mike Pence will reportedly visit Japan, Indonesia and Australia next month as part of an Asian tour amid concerns the Trump administration is rolling back Barack Obama’s “pivot to Asia”.
US President Donald Trump has already withdrawn from the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement, which was seen as an economic pillar of the strategy.
The news comes after Foreign Affairs Minister Julie Bishop met with Mr Pence in Washington DC last month, and invited him to visit Australia “as soon as possible”.
Mr Pence will likely face the task of smoothing over Mr Trump’s alleged hostile phone call with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull.

The tour will also include South Korea, the Nikkei Asian Review reported, with North Korea’s missile and nuclear programs and South Korea’s political crisis likely topics for discussion.
China has been infuriated by South Korea’s plan to deploy a US missile defence system, targeted at the North Korean threat, and South Korea is going through political turmoil after the dismissal of its president in a corruption probe.
Mr Pence is also expected to visit Tokyo for the US-Japan economic dialogue, according to a source familiar with the matter. However, New Zealand wasn’t mentioned in the list of stopovers.
