Foreign media: Australian Prime Minister hopes to establish a "stable relationship" with China

According to the website of the Australian Financial Review on October 30th, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese hopes to establish a "no surprises" stable relationship with China, stating that his visit to China later this week marks a shift towards normalization in bilateral relations.
When asked what he envisioned the stable Australian China relationship would ultimately look like, Albanese said that the dialogue between the two sides would be "frank and open", but still fluid.
After meeting with US President Biden and key members of the US Congress, Albanese said on his way back home, "That's a relationship where trade is unimpeded and there will be more frequent ministerial dialogues
The report quoted him as saying, "I hope this is a relationship that will not happen unexpectedly. We know the context of the matter and can have an open discussion
Albanese will depart on November 4th to visit Australia's largest trading partner, China. This is the first visit of an Australian Prime Minister to China since 2016.
Since his election in May last year, his Labour Party has been pursuing a policy of "stabilizing" relations with China, easing hawkish rhetoric during the previous coalition of the Liberal and National Party.
On October 29th, when discussing this visit to China, Albanese stated that Australia will cooperate with Beijing as much as possible, express different opinions when necessary, and always prioritize its own best interests.
He said, "I think this is the way to establish relationships, which is to engage in these direct conversations, and I believe Australia can achieve this
The report suggests that less than a week after visiting Australia's closest ally and two-way investment partner, the United States, Albanese is walking a tightrope on geopolitical issues by visiting Australia's largest trading partner.
Last week, he talked with US Vice President Harris and Secretary of State Antony Blinken at the US State Department, calling on the US and China to ease tensions through dialogue. On October 29th, he stated that Australia could play a role in helping the US and Chinese armies establish "guardrails".
Albanese said, "Our relationship with China is different from our relationship with the United States. The United States is our ally." He said, "Although our relationship with China is different, it is equally important
Australian opposition leader Peter Dutton said he is "very happy" with the Australian Prime Minister's visit to Beijing, but also stated that the Albanese government needs to "realistically view the relationship between the two countries".
Darton said, "We have a very strong trade relationship with China, and we hope to see this relationship continue to develop
According to the Australian Associated Press website on October 30th, as the Australian Prime Minister prepares to visit Beijing, Australian Minister of Agriculture, Forestry, Fisheries and Emergency Management Murray Watt is confident that China will further lift tariffs on Australian products.

China has agreed to reassess tariffs on Australian wine. Watt said that as relations with this Asian country ease, Australia is continuing to work hard to ensure that other trade measures can also be lifted.

China has recently lifted tariffs on Australian barley and other products, which have been imposed since 2020 after the deterioration of relations between China and the government of former Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison.
Australian Foreign Minister Huang Yingxian said that the former Prime Minister's China policy was wrong.
She said, "We have been saying that we hope to establish a more stable relationship with China. I think Scott Morrison's very politicized domestic policy is not good for the country
Huang Yingxian also said that Albanese's visit is of great significance.
Albanese stated on October 29th that the purpose of his trip was to engage with China, but denied that Australia would act as an intermediary for the United States.
On October 30th, the website of Singapore's Straits Times reported that Australia found itself at the "intersection" of two major powers in the world. Following last week's visit to Washington, Australian Prime Minister Albanese will visit Beijing again.
The report states that his preferred term for describing the current relationship between Australia and China is' stability '.
Although Albanese avoided the hostile rhetoric of members of Australia's previously ruling Liberal National Alliance towards Beijing, he still supports strengthening security relations with Washington.
On the eve of Albanese 'visit to China, Beijing signaled its desire to improve relations with Australia and hope for a successful visit, such as easing trade penalties.
Both sides have the opportunity to promote trade and investment, and there is a possibility of cooperation in areas such as climate change.
Dialogue is always a good thing, "Albanese said at a joint press conference with Biden last week." Through dialogue, we can enhance understanding and ease tensions
