Australia’s prime minister conceded defeat after an election Saturday that could deliver a minority government.
Scott Morrison acted quickly despite millions of votes yet to be counted because an Australian prime minister must attend a Tokyo summit on Tuesday with U.S., Japanese and Indian leaders.
“I believe it’s very important that this country has certainty. I think it’s very important this country can move forward,” Morrison said.

1. On April 26, Karen Middleton received a message from a Sri Lankan-Australian man.
He alleged two boats had left Sri Lanka for Australia, facilitated by the Sri Lankan Government.
He said the boat was due to arrive just before May 21, as “an election stunt”. pic.twitter.com/JoLnOGtVEg
