Shadow Defence Minister Richard Marles has told Sky News that building closer defence ties with China is necessary to increase the trust between the nations. Mr Marles said Australia and China could undertake more military exercises together, despite concerns over the Asian nation flexing its muscles in the South China Sea.
“There is no trust that I can tell in terms of the relationship that currently exists between China and Australia, and that is something that we need to build,” he said. “The military-to-military relationship that exists between Australia and China in the context of the entire relationship is in one of the better places. “In a world where we’re seeking to build more trust, where that would be a good thing to do, part of the relationship which is going better than other parts is worth leveraging.
