A Chinese embassy delegation has accused Australia of waging an ‘anti-China campaign’ as Scott Morrison continues a state visit to the United States.

A Chinese embassy delegation has lashed out at the Australian government for pioneering a global “anti-China campaign”.

Minister for Foreign Affairs Marise Payne and Prime Minister Scott Morrison at a press conference in New York, United States.But Mr Morrison has downplayed concerns Australia is being torn between the increasingly rival superpowers.“We don’t have to see this in the great conquest of ideologies and belief systems - it is just the economy moving through a new phase and the international community adjusting to that.

He said Australian media accusations against Chinese foreign interference in the country had helped fuel increased government hostility.“China always promotes friendship.”While touring the United States, Mr Morrison has urged a re-calibration of the global trading system to treat China as a “newly developed economy” rather than a developing one.

“That doesn't have to be the case, because Australia has got its own national interest to pursue,” he said. “Does he think that will be well received and will reduce tension between China and the United States over trade.”But Mr Morrison has rejected this assertion, saying relations remain strong with its comprehensive strategic trading partner.

it's TRUE, I can't understand why is the government throwing all their eggs in the US basket?! this doesn't seems to be politically right rather it's a kind of obedience to the US!!!

Who gives a rats what China says and what the pm said is spot on

He likes blaming them for carbon pollution but he loves selling them coal.

Its only the LNP pushing that They like Trump will pass .

Yeeeep, definitely the case - Morrison's thrown his lot in with Trump.

Treat China like a grown-up, says Scott Morrison on US tourThe prime minister says the whole world - China and the US included - must pull together to make sure global trading rules are fit for a modern age. Great news, together we can bring real prosperity. Love Trump he is doing a great job, hope Scomo is 1\\2 as successful. I have been Back in France a month now and I can truly appreciate the mediocrity of the Australian government. It’s a different world here almost not the same timeline. Australia seems so backward viewed from here.
