Australia’s Foreign Minister Marise Payne has defended her decision to intervene and cancel the state of Victoria’s Belt and Road deals with Beijing after the Chinese embassy lashed out, labelling the move “unreasonable and provocative.”
ABC AM host Sabra Lane told Payne she'd have to be naive to think Beijing won’t retaliate given the various tariffs and import problems imposed by the Chinese regime on wine, barley, beef, seafood, coal, and timber over the last year.
