/ world today news/ “China and Australia agreed to open a new page”. “After years of strained relations that hindered the development of trade, this meeting marks the thawing of diplomatic relations between the two countries.” Western media paid great attention to the leaders’ meeting of China and Australia.
On November 6, Xi Jinping met with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, who is on an official visit to China, in Beijing.
The Chinese president described Albanese’s visit as “continuing the past and opening the future”, stressing the need to take the right direction for the development of China-Australia relations in the context of profound changes in the world situation. Starting from the common interests of both parties, relations of equality should be jointly built, common positions should be sought, while maintaining differences. All of these will benefit cooperation and promote the steady development of the comprehensive strategic partnership between China and Australia.
Indeed, there are no historical clashes or entrenched conflicts of interest between the two countries to prevent them from developing a comprehensive partnership and mutual trust. Since the beginning of this year, China and Australia have held friendly consultations within the framework of the World Trade Organization on topics such as trade in wine and wind energy equipment, reaching a fair consensus.
During Prime Minister Albanese’s visit to China, he attended the opening ceremony of the 6th International Import Expo. About 200 Australian companies are taking part in this year’s expo, expressing optimism about the Chinese market, with high expectations of strengthening practical cooperation between the two countries.
