Relations between Indonesia and Australia are now a bit strained after an Australian newspaper publishes a cartoon poking fun at Indonesia's leader.

Indonesia says the drawing, which apparently depicts the president fornicating dogs, is "not helpful" in helping relations. According to the BBC, the drawing is in response to a cartoon in an Indonesian newspaper depicting Australia's prime and foreign ministers copulating dingoes.

Tensions became high after Canberra agreed to give visas to a group of 42 Papuan asylum seekers who said they were escaping abuses by Indonesia's military.

Indonesia said it was "surprised and disappointed" by the decision.
