中澳戰(zhàn)略經(jīng)濟對話暫停

China said Thursday that Australia has been for some time abusing the so-called "national security" reasons to further restrict and suppress China-Australia cooperation, which has gravely damaged mutual trust between the two countries and undermined the foundation of normal exchanges and cooperation.
