Australia's Prime Minister Scott Morrison was in a bullish mood as he addressed a sudden trade spat sparked by China, which has been angered by his calls for an independent COVID-19 inquiry.
"We draw very clear lines about things that are very important to us, as does the Chinese government," Morrison said. "Now, our government is very clear about these things, and we will always continue to be clear. And these are not things to be traded.", said despite Morrison's latest statement, Beijing is likely to maintain its stance.
