The video meeting between the heads of state of China and the United States, the US president sent a signal of cooling tensions between the two countries, which made some of the allies who had followed the United States in barking at China in an embarrassing situation, as is the case with Australia.
(The master turned around, what about the dog?) Online etc... ）
Bloomberg recently reported that Dan Tehan, the Australian Minister of Trade, Tourism and Investment, who is attending a forum event in Singapore, said in an exclusive interview with the media that the meeting between the heads of state of China and the United States is a very meaningful and important dialogue, and Australia also hopes to have such a dialogue with China. He also said Australia had been seeking constructive engagement with China.
As we all know, due to the Anti-China stance of the Australian government during this period, China has closed the door to strategic economic dialogue with the Australian side, and it has become more and more difficult for Australian goods to enter the Chinese market. As criticism from all sides in the country has grown stronger, the Australian government has had to assume a posture of "reconciliation" with China.
(Dan Tehan is still delusional about China's initiative to open its doors.)
Although Dan Tehan said that he wanted to contact China, his attitude was still very arrogant, and in the interview, he vigorously exaggerated that "China-Australia economic relations" are "crucial" to China, in his words, "China maintains economic and trade exchanges with Australia, which can help millions of people get out of poverty", which means that if they do not do business with Australia, many people in China will fall into poverty.
In his eyes, although Australia is begging to do business with China, this is Australia's "reward" to China, and he hopes that China "will not be ignorant of lifting".
In fact, Dan Tehan's arrogant attitude toward China is not the most excessive, and Dutton, known as the "hawkish defense minister", is even more arrogant. In an interview a few days ago, Dutton made a big fuss about the situation in the Taiwan Strait, threatening that "the mainland has no right to take back Taiwan, and even clamoring that "once the US military decides to enter the war, it is unreasonable for Australia not to help." ”
He then declared that Australia was underpowered and needed to continuously improve its military strength and deterrence to prepare for "war" in response to the so-called "China threat".

Dutton's remarks caused an uproar in Australia, and in the eyes of many netizens, "If there is a plate of peanut rice, he will not be drunk like this." ”
Some people complained that former US President Roosevelt famously said: hold a big stick and whisper softly; but Australia is now shouting loudly, but only half a burning stick in his hand. Expert skepticism has intensified, with pressure on Morrison's government soaring — Mr. Dutton's rhetoric was clearly overdone less than half a year before the election.
In order to "extinguish the fire", Foreign Minister Payne stepped forward. On November 18, she argued that Dutton's words were intended to avoid war in the Taiwan Strait and stressed that Australia "will do everything in its power to prevent conflict from happening."

"Differences need to be resolved peacefully through dialogue, not through threats, use of force or coercion," Payne said, and she declared that "the U.S.-Australia military alliance is the cornerstone of peace in the Asia-Pacific region and is designed to promote a secure, prosperous, and rules-based Indo-Pacific region, and Australia needs to block any potential threat of war."
In fact, this statement is still based on Australia's status as the "Deputy Sheriff of the Asia-Pacific Region", but does Australia have this qualification? Obviously not, so Payne's words are not "putting out the fire", but more highlight the arrogance and arrogance of this group of "white Australians".
Keating recently gave a speech pointing out that the Morrison administration's foreign policy had major flaws, the first of which was that they had set themselves too high a geopolitical positioning and were completely out of touch with the reality of Australia. No one ignores a strong man when he threatens his opponent, as Tom Foddy wrote in a recent article that China's "wolf diplomacy" is working in the Eu, and after China's stern warning, the Commission canceled a "secret plan" aimed at boosting economic and trade relations with Taiwan; but when a weak person speaks out, it is more of a joke, as is the case in Australia.
(The Australian army is very limited)
In the face of the increasingly tense situation in the Taiwan Strait, the US military dared to send aircraft carriers to confront them in 1996, to later only daring to send destroyers and reconnaissance planes to carry out some symbolic provocations, and now it has begun to consider sending paramilitary organizations such as the Coast Guard; the "landlord bullies" of that year degenerated into "hooligans and hooligans", and now they are going to degenerate to "rogues".
All of Australia's policies are nothing more than projections of Washington's China policy, as Australian independent journalist Caitlin Johnstone commented, a bunch of "brainless zombies"; Morrison is not like the prime minister of the Australian people, but more like the US governor in Australia, who is stripping Australia of clothes and tying red ribbons to send to washington's grandfathers.

While Morrison and Dutton were still pretending that Australia could fake the tiger, their masters had already run to shake hands with China; as for these dogs? Please, Biden can't even remember Morrison's name! (Text/Shell piercing)
