SYDNEY - The Australian government's diplomatic row with its largest trading partner, China, over Canberra's push for a coronavirus inquiry has some of the nation's top business leaders nervous that economic ties will become irreparably damaged.
"Once consumer demand picks up again in China, there will be no other market in the short-to-medium term that will provide a market for our exports, which is so important for our recovery." The government would"protect both our national security and our economy", Ms Payne told Australian Broadcasting Corp radio.
"In the current crisis, it's never been more important for countries to cooperate to ensure we all get through this together," said National Farmers Federation chief executive Tony Mahar. "We would prefer that politics and business are kept separate, and diplomatic channels are the better way to deal with this," Mr Tony Battagene, chief executive of industry body Australian Grape and Wine, told Reuters.
I believe the Australian PM is as they say ‘looking towards the future’. Sure it’s good to look out for your people but shouldn’t he also have the responsibility to look for answer and not be afraid of China’s bullying tactics
