‘Very important’: Trading relationship with China ‘in Australia’s favour’

Trade and Tourism Minister Don Farrell says the process the Labor government started two years ago was to “stabilise” Australia’s relationship with China. “China is our largest trading partner and last year, two-way trade between Australia and China was $327 billion, that’s higher than our next five trading partners,” Mr Farrell told Sky News Australia. “The relationship between Australia and China is very important and of course overwhelmingly that trading relationship is in Australia’s favour.”
