That’s according to China’s Foreign Affairs Minister Wang Yi, who was in New York for the UN General Assembly. He met with Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong in an exchange she described as “constructive”. “I think it is a long road in which many steps will have to be taken by both parties to a more stable relationship,” she said. As for Wang, he said that “China is willing to work with the Australian side to … properly resolve differences and promote the healthy and stable development of bilateral relations.” It’s the 2nd time the nations’ representatives have met face-to-face within 3 months. The Morrison Government could not secure a returned phone call for more than 2 years after the relationship went belly up over China’s aggressive push into our region and calls for an investigation into the origins of the COVID pandemic.
