Prime Minister Scott Morrison has defended his government's strong stance on China and says he is committed to protecting Australia's sovereign interests. “The tensions we’re currently facing, the challenge we’re facing … over many years now and the suggestion it’s any one item, I don’t accept that and the wise analysts on this have got the same view,” he said.
“What we’re doing is ensuring that we maintain our ground as a country, on our sovereign interests, that we stand up for Australia and our values and how we want to live our lives.” The prime minister’s comments follow those of Foreign Minister Marise Payne who criticised the practice of trying to “buy influence” with other countries. “Our focus and our ability to solve practical problems stem from our understanding that these efforts create regional and global stability".
ScottMorrisonMP As a HongKonger, I feel like a Jew in China. I hope Australia will never back down on the values of free society ( No matter how much the money shown on the trading table.
ScottMorrisonMP As a HongKongers, feeling like one of the Jews in China now, the stronger Australians sticking to the values of free society, the safer I feel here in this great country. Because I don’t want Australians has to suffer what we HongKongers’ tragedy.

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? 🤷🏻♂️
