When the relationship between China and Australia is gradually heating up, Australian Prime Minister Albanis said he had invited Chinese Prime Minister Li Qiang to visit Australia next year.
According to Agence France -Presse, Albanis met with Chinese President Xi Jinping during the Asia -Pacific Economic Cooperation Organization (APEC) summit during the San Francisco Summit on Friday (November 17).This is the second time to meet Xi Jinping in one month after Albanis visited China in early November.
In response to the content of the talks, Albanis told reporters: "We talked about the issue of Prime Minister Li (Li Qiang) visiting Australia next year, and the talks between the two countries have now recovered ... This is positive."
Albanis said he also asked China to cancel the remaining trade restrictions on Australian products.
During the Morrison government, Canberra asked to trace the source of coronary virus and prohibit Chinese communications equipment giants from participating in the construction of Australia 5G, allowing China -Australia relations to fall into frozen for four years from 2018 for four years.In the future, China has also implemented trade restrictions on many Australian products.
Since the Albanis government came to power, Australia has eased its attitude towards China. In recent months, Beijing has relaxed punitive trade restrictions on Australian barley, coal, and wood.Last month, Beijing also released the Australian Chinese reporter Cheng Lei. However, restrictions on Australian products such as wine and lobster have not been lifted.
But in this regard, the Australian Minister of Trade Farrell said on Wednesday (15th) that confident China may officially cancel all trade barriers in December.
