Clinton tipped to visit Australia

Rumours are growing that US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will visit Australia
in the next fortnight.
One of the nation's leading foreign policy thinkers has tipped Ms Clinton to be here
soon.
"From the grapevine: Hillary Clinton will almost certainly be visiting Australia in
the next fortnight," Michael Fullilove told his Twitter followers on Tuesday.
Dr Fullilove is director of the global issues program at the Lowy Institute for
International Policy.
A one-time presidential candidate, Ms Clinton has not visited Australia since she
was appointed secretary of state by US President Barack Obama a year ago.
The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade and the US Embassy in Canberra declined
to comment.
A spokeswoman from the prime minister's office was keeping mum on any impending visit.
