Key comments
- China meeting is a one-off not a resumption of dialogue.
- Not there yet on negotiating outstanding issues with China.
- To discuss china’s economic coercion of Australia.
Market implications
The markets will be hopeful for a positive dialogue between the two most powerful nations in the world.
