Australia and China

Australia and China’s top diplomats have constructive talks in Beijing

Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong has touched down in China, signalling the beginning of a new chapter in relations between the two nations.

Wong is Australia’s first minister to visit Beijing in three years.

In wide-ranging talks with her Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, Wong raised human rights concerns, detained citizens and “trade blockages”.

It comes as the two countries celebrate 50 years of diplomatic relations.

The pair agreed to continue dialogue in a range of areas, including trade and economic issues.

“When we last spoke, state councillor, you said a sound Australia-China relationship is not in contradiction with safeguarding national interests. I agree,” Wong said.

“We can grow our bilateral relationship and uphold both of our national interests if both countries navigate our differences wisely.

“With that in mind, today I would like to discuss in the course of this meeting several issues of importance for Australia, which include consular matters, trade blockages, human rights and the global rules and the norms that underpin our security and our prosperity.”

This of course refers to China’s tariffs, bans and restrictions on a range of Australian exports, including wine and barley.

Wong said they have “agreed to maintain high-level engagement”, with Australia seeking “more structured dialogue”.

This visit was organised following a successful meeting between Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Chinese President Xi Jinping in Bail.
