Prime Minister Scott Morrison has called claims of racism against Chinese students in Australia “rubbish” saying Australia would not submit to “coercion” from the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). It marks the first time Morrison has used the word “coercion” to describe the Chinese regime-instigated trade dispute with Australia.
Morrison’s comments were in response to the Chinese Ministry of Education’s warning to Chinese international students that “multiple incidents” of racial discrimination were occurring in Australia.
