Trade Minister Dan Tehan has expressed disappointment over the downward spiral in diplomatic relations with China.

Beijing has indefinitely suspended all contact under the China-Australia Strategic Economic Dialogue.

"We want to have a dialogue with China, we want to be able to work through our differences," Mr Tehan told Seven on Friday. But its decision is largely symbolic, given Beijing was already refusing high-level meetings and discussions under the dialogue had not taken place in several years.Chinese-Australians underrepresented in public service despite 'crucial' need to understand China

But Beijing continues to buy vast quantities of Australian iron ore at record prices, minimising the economic impact."If decisions are taken which impact on our commercial relationship, ultimately in the end it harms both nations," Mr Tehan said.

SBS no point talking to morrison when hes beating the fucking drums of war.

What a great pretender!!

Of all of that lot I trust Dan Teehan the most

Usually you don't start by kicking the person next door when you want help repairing a fence.

Bunch of fools ruining peoples live

Why do SBS followers support genocide happening in China? Amongst other things

All this has come about because of inept Australian politicians mouthing off about China’s affairs. Totally tactless and inappropriate comments that are continually ruining our trading opportunities with a market of 1.4 billion people.

Member of government that has actively contributed to deterioration in relationship with China disappointed in deterioration

SBS Well who's not? What the Morrison government doing is devastating the very basic national interests of Australia.

/Punches self in face I wonder why it feels like I was punched in the face

Perhaps if the PM had used diplomatic channels regarding CO VID instead of publicly demanding an investigation which made China lose face, then perhaps we could have gotten through this but instead, we have the LNP Murdoch brigade talking war. Reckless idiots

Well. I’ll tell you else is disappointed... 25 million Australians ... with the performance of this government. Over the last 6 months this lot has completely lost the plot.

SBS This guy is a walking dunce cap

Does Mr. Tehan really think people are stupid?

SBS

The Morrison Government has no idea on diplomacy ,as such they are destroying the export trade

Many Australians are happy about it and look forward to trade relations being developed with decent democracies across the world.

Who in this country isn't *disappointed* with Dan Tehan's performance? Good, grief - what is wrong with him ?

I wonder how? I wonder why? Yesterday you told me about the blue sky! Oh that I can see. It just a yellow lemon tree....

Disappointment? DISAPPOINTMENT! And who's to blame? auspol LiarFromTheShire

He should probably have a chat with his buddy Dutton to hush down a bit (a lot).

I express disappointment at the government

No overtime meetings for trade minister
