People in coronavirus ravaged India could still make it back to Australia if they exploit a loophole in the flight ban and transit through Qatar or China. Flights from Qatar and China are entering into Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane airports daily.
It is justifiable to exploit loopholes in these circumstances.
This is ridiculous. If this is happening, you may aswell open the borders with India again. Get on top of this Fed Government now

India is critical in ‘balancing China’ but its prestige is ‘plummeting’ | Sky News AustraliaIndia’s coronavirus crisis was caused by a mixture of “bad luck and bad management” as the Modi government “became complacent” after a relatively calm first wave, according to The Australian’s Greg Sheridan.\n\nIndia’s coronavirus death toll has officially surpassed 200,000, but experts and health workers warn the true scale of devastation is much worse.\n\nMore than 360,000 new cases were reported in the past 24-hours; the seventh consecutive day where global records were beaten.\n\nMr Sheridan said the early form of coronavirus did not hit India particularly hard because it wasn’t well adapted to attack youth, which encompassed a large portion of India’s population.\n\n“India became complacent and then this new mutant variety, the double mutant strain, is clearly much more deadly, much more infective, and much more likely to attack young people,” he said.\n\n“India has shipped out more than 70 million vaccine dosses, it hasn’t made enough domestically, and it hasn’t bought enough internationally”.\n\nMr Sheridan said India’s current catastrophe had an impact on Australia strategically.\n\n“India is absolutely critical to Australia as a strategic partner and critical to the region in balancing China,” he said.\n\n“The prestige of Indian state capacity is plummeting when Chinese prestige is rising”.\n\n The same Greg Sheriden that claimed we were all hyperventilating over Covid for nothing and going overboard with our response? 🤔 plandemic If the Australian government cannot manage the vaccination rollout for willing citizens in a population of 25 millions, imagine the challenges facing the India government with a population of 1.366 billions, many of whom live in abject poverty and smog!

Biden's stance on China and Indo-Pacific 'good news for Australia' | Sky News AustraliaThe Australian's Foreign Editor Greg Sheridan says President Joe Biden's policy on China and the Indo-Pacific has been 'very good' - the Afghanistan military withdrawal will free up 'resources' to bolster their Navy in the Indo-Pacific.\n\n'The Biden administration has been very sensible- quite different from the second Obama administration,' Mr Sheridan said.\n\n'On the whole, it has continued Trump policy but I do think on China and the central challenge in the Indo-Pacific he and his whole administration... have been very good. \n\nMr Sheridan pointed to President Biden's efforts in withdrawing troops from Afghanistan to devote more resources to the Indo-Pacific.\n\n'I even think that it's been very good that he's pulled out of Afghanistan and is trying to draw down in the middle-east - because if you're fighting a war in the middle-east you're never going to devote the resources you need in the Pacific.\n\n'The US Navy has shrunk it's too small - can't do what we need it to do, so I think really Biden has been very good on China and the Indo-Pacific.'\n\n Greg wont be invited back Uh oh, programming error at Sky. Cut quickly to Rowan Dean! Thanks Greg. I have been shitting myself with all the war talk from the PM ScottMorrisonMP , senior ministers, senior government officials and SkyNews hosts recently but your comments are very reassuring!

Australia remains open to dialogue after China indefinitely suspends economic accord | Sky News AustraliaTrade Minister Dan Tehan has received bilateral support to keep the conversation flowing with China after the communist power indefinitely suspended its high-level economic dialogue with Australia amid escalating trade tensions.\n\nIn a statement on a Chinese government website, Beijing declared the decision was based on the current attitude of the Australian government towards China-Australia cooperation. \n\nMr Tehan expressed his disappointment with the decision, saying “the Strategic Economic Dialogue … is an important forum for Australia and China to work through issues relevant to our economic partnership'.\n\n“We remain open to holding the dialogue and engaging at the Ministerial level”. \n\nOpposition Leader Anthony Albanese said 'we do need dialogue with China' but it needs to be 'on both countries' terms.' \n\nThis latest dilemma follows the Morrison government forcing Victoria to abandon its Belt and Road deal with China and ongoing debate about the 99-year lease Chinese lease of Darwin Port. \n DanTehanWannon We need build a trade environment without China as long as CCP continues ruling China. It will be hurt for many industries and in short time but will benefit our country in long term.

China further 'isolating’ itself by suspending economic dialogue with Australia | Sky News AustraliaDefence strategist Tyson Sara says China’s suspension of its economic accord with Australia comes after it ran out of exports to sanction and is “another step” in the communist power “isolating itself”. \n\nIn a statement on a Chinese government website, Beijing declared the decision was based on the current attitude of the Australian government towards China-Australia cooperation.\n\n“They’re not really going to sanction the stuff that they need, and we’ve seen record iron ore prices,” Mr Sara said.\n\n“They can sanction barley, they can sanction wine, they can do some of the things that hurt us that don’t hurt them. \n\n“I think they have run out of those economic levers for now - don’t ever rule it out - but taking this action is just another step in, I think, China isolating itself rather than strengthening its own position.' Is China isolating itself or Australia. Obvious answer. Why are Australia creating conflict with our biggest trading partner. We are a small country. What the hell is this government doing? 🤷🏻♂️
