Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will hold bilateral talks with Li Qiang, China's second-in-command, on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit.
The pair will meet on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit in Jakarta.While the Chinese President Xi Jinping is a no-show at summit season events this year, the Australian Prime Minister is expected to secure a meeting with Premier Li Qiang on the sidelines of the East Asia Summit in Jakarta., after breaking the ice with President Xi at last year’s G20 summit on the Indonesia resort island of Bali.
Yesterday Anthony Albanese said Australia was “working through some of the issues” after China placed trade tariffs on Australian agricultural products and imports like coal.Those sanctions were first imposed under the former Coalition government in 2020, as tensions grew over Australia’s leading role in calling for an inquiry into the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic.
