Your first link doesn't show any evidence of, or even suggest that, Kaspersky has attacked Australia.
It shows only that the Australian government expresses concern over the capability, which doesn't seem entirely unreasonable and also politically motivated.

That's not concern of possibility. That's acknowledgement of exfiltration of data, back to Russia. Past tense.
This is political, yes. But only insofar as all actions of one nation against another is political. Australia go to some lengths not to piss Russia off. If things were not so political, then the response would likely be much greater, not less.
Uhm if you read the kind of thing Aussie government hackers were doing lately... They are perfectly fine pissing off Russia:) (There are plenty of actual threats from there, just kaspersky doesn't seem one)
