China's foreign ministry has said its diplomats in Australia abide by international law, accusing some in the country of smearing China, following media reports Australian police had accessed communications of Chinese diplomats.
The Australian Federal Police and the Australian Security and Intelligence Organisation have declined to comment on whether a raid on the offices of a New South Wales state politician and his staffer on 26 June was related to China. John Zhang, who worked for NSW Labor politician Shaoquett Moselmane, has asked the High Court to quash the search warrants used to search his home, business and Mr Moselmane's parliament office.
"The accusations that the Consulate General and its official engaged in infiltration activities are totally baseless and nothing but vicious slanders," the statement said.
The biggest foreign interference in Australia has always been from the US.
Talk is cheap China, everybody sees your Actions now.
everytime SBS reports something on China, I just go straight to the comment section to have a look at the number of idiots in Australia.
There is no anti Chinese sentiment here. I ve got 10 Chinese bidding for my stinkshed as we speak.
Don’t care what China thinks.
Well, if the shoe fits. Typical hypocrisy coming from China and only being done to cover their tracks. We know what they've been up to and they don't like being called out over it. You couldn't trust the CCP as far as you could throw it. They're duplicitous.
They are whipping up their own negative sentiments l. Nobody likes a lying bully.
China whips up anti-china sentiment, they dont need others to reveal how dangerous, insidious, cruel and power-hungry they are. Every day China shows the world they cannot be trusted, and how they hide in secrecy.
I don’t see fairness being observed by both sides ....just media hysteria
When Scotty was summoned by Trump to the White House on September last year, Australia could no longer be in observer seat anymore.
The whole world is Anti Chinese.
China whipped up anti Australian sentiment six months ago, and haven't stopped.
Just doing what Trump ordered.
China doesn’t like when another country stands up to them and wants answers
Did you vote Labor in the last election? Were you influenced by China? Tell me someone who has been influenced by CPC! Have you heard of Don Quixote's fight with the windmill? Such a hero!
Census and BOM attacks, anyone?
Don’t accuse Australia - accuse Murdoch and the LNP.
we are now seeing the true face of the chinese. gone is the nice mr nice ching chong who is everybodys friend. you can now see these pathological lying little criminals for what they really are.
China could just stop interfering if it doesn't like it.
Ok first of all please differentiate between CCP and China. Second, every country has skeletons in the closet. It just so happens that CCP isn't good at hiding theirs and US is really good at weaponising social media.
There should be anti china sentiment. Because of communism
Congratulations SBS!! Australia’s very own Breitbart judging by the nature of the majority of comments.
China is right. And the Australian government, on behalf of the population, is effectively cutting the nation’s economic throat because of its failure to act like an adult and use diplomacy rather than schoolyard abuse.
I'd like to add how important good journalism is to not just democracy but a viable nation
Did Australia expel Chinese journalist?
After the arrest of 2 innocent tourists they call spies all for their hostage diplomacy. Arresting their own propaganda mouthpiece, forcing the removal of journalists. Yes it definitely started with Australia. CCP is fundamentally corrupt, they just thought they could do it here.
Australia was a wealthy country in the 70s and 80s. Then they decided to sell everything to foreign investors and privatised what was left. Now Australians pay the price as they have nothing left.
Dirty bandits
When will ASIO investigate Australian Strategic Policy Unit funded by CIA & Arms manufacturers for interference in Australian Politics? China auspol Surely ABC Can find an independent Australian political expert to comment MrKRudd theDrum TheProjectTV insiders QandA
HYPOCRITES!! The world is holding you to account.. we are aware of your duplicity.. we are aware of your double standards.. we are watching
The anti Chinese sentiment is a product of their actions. This is some narcissistic BS on their part. Instead of admit they are a bit crap they pick on everyone else to try to deflect attention.
Which they have been for domestic political purposes.
Whipping up anti-China sentiment❌ The world just realised they fed a snake that bite them back n China is never a good business partner or friend✅
Will PM/LNP compensate the businesses that will lose their incomes from China and to China which has built up for years and the friendly relationship that resulted from it that carried Australia through the GFC? Relationship built up over 30 years, destroyed in 18 months..
Kettle. Black.
Just a question - how is it possible for communist regime to buy land in our country Is there an answer idealistically & why haven’t our authorities asked or are they asleep at the wheel ... We can’t buy theirs over there
Unfortunately this is true. For those with short memories it started with blaming China for the coronavirus and demanding compensation. Then a bit of gratuitous support for the rioters in HK. This is how scomo thinks he’ll win an election.
Sour grapes. China 25ya was bankrupt, Western capitalist exploited its resources. As China became profitable, they expanded their investment. China didn't wage war, like US UK & its minion Australia. It built its economic wealth & tech, socialist competition is anti-capitalism.
Total bullshit...as if any entity could whip up such sentiment more than China is, simply by acting as it does. They suck at propaganda.
Aim at AUSSIE MADE products
No, CCP did that. So they could turn around and blame some other country.
Hit them hard where it hurts most, boycotts china 🇨🇳 products they will their brains on right place
QuestionMoreAus Dear china: sod off.
It didn’t need much whipping after the beef, the barley, the wine, the bat virus, HongKong and the UyghurGenocide . Maybe if China moves to a democratic form of government we can start again?
That’s true, Australia is so anti China and yet didn’t dare to break its relationship with China, what a coward is Australia!
The communist is the using its economic power n technology to bully other countries which go against its will CCP_is_terrorist
China/ The CCP did that all on they're own
No we are speaking out against a despicable regime! 🤨
I heard a Chinese Spokesman say on SBS News (of course I’m a regular Viewer) that China was not happy about “certain people” speaking badly about them. Name names so I can send them a “keep it up” message.
That sentiment is not restricted to Australia. Ask India Vietnam Philippines Taiwan Japan
Don’t you think that the CCP is doing a great job at ‘whipping up anti-China sentiment’ all on its own ?
China wants to extend its muscles to others without blame or deterrence According to the popular proverb؛ {He hit me and cried, then preceded me and complained}
I am Chinese, but i hate the CCP. Why? i hope one day authorities will claim the CCP is actually a terrorist group.
China smeared itself by: continuing military occupation of Tibet, ignoring Sino-British agreement on Hong Kong, by attempts to harm sovereign Taiwan via damage to Taiwan's foreign relations & blocking Taiwan's seat at various tables, by unilateral claims of SCS & ECS. MFA_China
Dr. Yan: the coronavirus was made in the lab, and being spread intentionally to the world by the Chinese Communist Party! Why we lost jobs, families and everything! Take down CCP now!
Stop iron ore , they would be straight to the table , don’t bow to bullies .
Oh Winnie Chinese ChineseVirus
Question China do you think the average proud decent intelligent Australian person has any interest in a communist power seeking intrusive neurotic government that is cruel in human and animal rights. You really are revolting government my opinion only
No ...china is whipping up anti china sentiment ...
China is an expansionist empire. They are already waging war based on absorbing all industrial power. Its just that it suits the finance world that we did noting about it.
I suggest smoking a bong to Enya. You'll feel so much better
How about the wolf diplomacy behaviour from CCPChina? They literally threatens every nation on earth CCP_is_terrorist
