Australian PM Albanese meets Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese on Wednesday met Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Canberra.

This is Wang’s first time visit to Australia since 2017, marking a diplomatic thaw between two trading partners who have sparred over everything from the origins of COVID-19 to military deployments.

Wang said that mutual trust and good momentum were slowly building in the relationship. After talks, China and Australia claimed to have stabilized long-strained relations.
