Chinese President Xi Jinping tells Australian Governor-General David Hurley ties between two countries moving in 'right direction'
ABCChinese President Xi Jinping has said that relations with Australia were moving in the right direction in the latest sign of an improvement in ties between the major trading partners. Key points: Chinese President Xi Jinping says both countries are "making active efforts towards the right direction of improving and growing China-Australia ties" China expert David Goodman says "we mustn't put too much significance" on the "nice gesture" Professor Goodman says that the message appearing to have been reported only in English-language Chinese media was "odd" Mr Xi made the comments in a congratulatory message for Australia Day sent to Australian Governor-General David Hurley, the Xinhua state-run news agency reported. Australia and China "have reviewed the past and looked to the future, making active efforts towards the right direction of improving and growing China-Australia ties", Mr Xi said, Xinhua reported. The development comes after Xinhua last week reported that Chinese Commerce Minister Wang Wentao would meet Australia's minister for trade, Don Farrell, via video "in the near future". A 'nice gesture' but 'symbolic' University of Sydney's director of the China studies centre, David Goodman, told the ABC that Mr Xi's message was a "nice gesture".
