There is no sense at all that communist China is interested in a “relationship of equals” with Australia, according to the Australian Strategic Policy Institute’s Peter Jennings.

Last week, Prime Minister Scott Morrison announced his plan to introduce broad scope powers for the federal government to tear up any deals states have engaged in with foreign powers.

“ wants subservience amongst the countries in the region,” Mr Jennings told Sky News host Alan Jones. “If you’re not prepared to do that – and of course Australians won’t – you’re going to be attacked, you’ll be coerced, and you’ll have your economy attacked. “That’s how Beijing is deciding to portray itself. Australia is being a bit of a canary in the mineshaft.” Image: AP

EQUAL? China and US are not having a good relationship. What do you expect for being a cheer leader for Trump?

Why should they does America class Australia as their equal just most bullshit from the Murdoch media

The word 'equality' does not exist in the dictator's dictionary🤷

There's no middle zone. TakeDownCCP

Stop CCP bullying!

CCP is not friend of democracy, human rights or rule of law. The only friends China has is the dollar and the euro. We need to stop their access to our economy, culture and live style.

ML03509599 CCP is using its sharp power to insert influence around the world. The latest in 'hostage diplomacy' 👇

Support Australia stand firm to China!! Neighborhood should be mutual help, not intimidate the neighbors every day!!

CCP always want a win-win solution, but what 'win-win' means to them is that they can win twice.

Nayyyyy, FreedomOfSpeech is nothing in CCPChina. Play it my way, or I will get your people with no reasons needed. Well, Australia was one of the faciliators who grew CCPChina's ego by feeding it whatever it wants. Isnt it?

Australia finally realizes what CCPChina is. There is no consistency between what CCP do and what CCP say.

Nayyyy, do you believe in CCPChina is going to play it in a fair way? If so, look at HongKong, Taiwan and Tibet. What's going on there? Why are people screaming out loud?

china only Totalitarian, they are anti universal value But almost them, send their family live in western enjoyed freedom and human rights but they dont share their for china

Sorry but I guess most of the people would have a trust issue in CCP. Chinazi

CCP is shameless.

The biggest problem for a relationship of equals is CCP themselves

The CCP is bullying Australia.

Pleases me that our government LiberalAus is being so pro-active pushing back against the ccp肉, we'd never in a million years see a AustralianLabor government due that.

It’s obvious that China isn’t pleased with us standing up for our values & sovereignty but up their ar*e, I say! Enough bullying & contemptuous treatment but now we hear of a citizen being held captive. Seems this women’s been there for yrs so why now? May God bless & keep her.

Maybe Australia can consider abolish the one China policy
