Ms Bishop admitted the events of the past week had taken a heavy toll personally and questioned the logic of Liberals who were determined to tear down her "dearest friend" Malcolm Turnbull. Bishop, the party's deputy leader, reportedly secured just 11 votes out of 85 in the first round - significantly lower than Morrison and the third challenger, Peter Dutton.

"I think in politics, especially in the Liberal party, it is far too easy to change the leader", she told ABC radio.

It is understood her only request of Mr Morrison was that NSW senator Marise Payne should succeed her as Foreign Minister.

Morrison, who has often spoken of the strong relations between the two nations, understands the importance of foreign investment in Australia, said Holden.

"Malcolm Turnbull was a great leader and we will remain close friends in the years to come", Mr Laundy said.

Communications minister Mitch Fifield also made a return to the cabinet in the same position after resigning on Thursday, as did minister for human services Michael Keenan, who had his remit as assistant minister for digital transformation upgraded to a full portfolio.

The new foreign minister's big challenge will be navigating a tricky relationship with China, Australia's top trading partner.
