The 7th edition of the Australia-China High-Level Dialogue (hereinafter, “Dialogue”), taking place in Beijing on September 7, 2023, facilitated discussions on trade, investment, regional security, and international cooperation among senior representatives from various sectors. The Dialogue was co-chaired by China’s former Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing and Australia’s former Trade Minister Craig Emerson. Former Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop also participated, underscoring its bipartisan nature.
The resumption of the high-level dialogue is indicative of broader efforts to enhance bilateral engagement and stabilize relations between the two countries. It follows a meeting between Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong and China’s State Councilor and Foreign Minister Wang Yi in Beijing last December.
Leading the Australian delegation, former Trade Minister Craig Emerson emphasized the historical significance of the dialogue in promoting mutual understanding and cooperation with their Chinese counterparts. This engagement marks another positive turning point, as China has already begun to ease restrictions on Australian goods and extended an invitation for Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to visit, further enhancing the optimistic outlook for bilateral relations.
