The issue comes as Romney works to polish his international credentials. The former Massachusetts governor leaves later this week on an international tour that includes stops in England, Israel and Poland. Romney's campaign declined to further characterize the meeting with Carr, which they said came at Carr's request. Carr's office said he briefed Romney on Australia's role in Afghanistan, in addition to Australia's plans for Afghan education, support for women, rural employment and government capability. The pair also "exchanged views on the Australian-American alliance, with Gov. Romney indicating that Australia had no firmer friend than the United States," according to Carr's office.
