Australia's PM Albanese meets China's President Xi in Brazil, balancing deep trade ties with Beijing and strong defence cooperation with the U.S. amidst evolving global dynamics.
Australia's Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will meet Chinese President Xi Jinping on Monday in Brazil during the G20 summit, marking a continuation of efforts to stabilize trade ties with China.
This comes a year after Albanese's visit to Beijing, which helped resolve a diplomatic dispute that had disrupted Australian exports.
Despite deepening defence ties with the U.S., including plans to boost Australia's critical minerals sector, Albanese emphasized Australia’s commitment to its trade relationship with China, noting it creates jobs at home. He avoided commenting on U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's proposed tariffs on China, stating Australia’s position on Beijing remains unchanged.
Analysts highlight Australia’s dual-track approach: strengthening security cooperation with Washington while maintaining robust trade with China. Beijing views Canberra as a model for balancing economic ties with China despite U.S. pressures, according to China's state media.
