This week’s High Level Dialogue is expected to be fearless, frank and friendly as the two nations seek to stabilise and strengthen their relationship.
This week’s resumption of the Australia-China High Level Dialogue is a further opportunity to stabilise and strengthen the relationship between our two countries. Nothing is lost and much can be gained by working with China to find common ground on issues relating to trade, investment, education and decarbonisation.
Australia’s 18-member delegation covers interests as diverse as higher education, tourism, transport, culture and media.former foreign minister, Julie Bishop The establishment of the annual High Level Dialogue was announced by both governments during President Xi Jinping’s visit to Australia in November 2014. However, the dialogue hasn’t been held since 2020. Former prime minister John Howard led the Australian delegation in January 2020 and in 2019.
It would not be useful to canvas sensitive issues ahead of the dialogue, but it is expected on both sides that the discussions will be fearless, frank and friendly. All 18 Australian delegation members will be given an opportunity to speak. Both countries have had their wolf warriors. Beyond seeking to appeal to segments of their domestic audiences, it is not clear what constructive purpose they have served in the Australia-China relationship.
And we will surely learn from each other on our efforts for decarbonisation and find areas of co-operation in reducing emissions and switching to renewable energy supply and minerals processing.
