Much has been made of China’s concessions to Australia heading into Prime Minister Anthony Albanese's trip to China at the invitation of President Xi Jinping.
The return to meetings at the ministerial level, the removal of trade sanctions and the release of Australian citizen Cheng Lei may have led to the perception that it has all been one-way traffic leading up to Albanese’s visit.
But if you missed the concessions on the Australian side, it’s probably because you weren’t looking hard enough.
In one week last month, Australia axed anti-dumping tariffs on Chinese-made wind towers and decided not to cancel the lease of the Port of Darwin.
