Anthony Albanese has declared that his landmark visit to Beijing was about “taking forward” Australia’s relationship with China, and he was committed to navigating differences “wisely and with great respect”.
Australia’s prime minister met Xi Jinping on Monday evening, his first meeting with the president on Chinese soil. Albanese told the president, and Zhao Leji, the chair of the National People’s Congress standing committee, that the five decades-long diplomatic relationship had brought benefits for both countries.
