Chinas unlimited time suspension of China -Australias strategic economic d

The China National Development and Reform Commission (referred to as the Development and Reform Commission) said today that from the beginning of the day, all activities under the Sino -Australian strategic economic dialogue mechanism led by the Reform and Reform Commission and the Australian federal government departments are suspended indefinitely.

According to CCTV News client, the Development and Reform Commission said that some people of the Australian government recently launched a series of measures to disrupt the normal exchanges and cooperation between the two countries based on the Cold War thinking and ideological prejudice.Based on the Australian government's current attitude towards China -Australia's cooperation, the above decision is made.

Australian Foreign Minister Payne announced on April 21 that Australia has canceled the Memorandum of understanding of the "Belt and Road" for the "Belt and Road" signed by Victoria in 2018 and the framework agreement signed in 2019;The other two agreements have also been overthrown.

According to the Australian Congress passed by the new diplomatic relations at the end of last year, foreign ministers have the right to review agreements reached by the Australian states, local governments, and universities and foreign governments.This is the first time Payne has used this power. She said: "I think these four arrangements are not in line with Australian foreign policy, or it is not conducive to our diplomatic relations."

The Chinese Embassy in Australia immediately accused Australia of "another unreasonable provocative behavior against China."The ambassador's statement said: "It once again shows that the Australian side has no sincerity about improving China -Australia relations, and it will inevitably cause further damage to bilateral relations, and it will also move stones to smash their feet."

However, Payne denied that the new law is aimed at China.In an interview with the radio station, she said: "This plan focuses on the interests of the Australian countries in order to ensure that the foreign policy of our governments at all levels is unified, and it is not aimed at any country."

Since Australia banned Chinese technology giants from participating in the construction of its 5G network on the grounds of national security in 2018, China -Australia's bilateral relations have plummeted.
