Australia's National Party Senator Says China One of Biggest Threats to His Country
MOSCOW (Sputnik) - China is one of the 'biggest threats' to Australia's liberties and future prosperity, the Senator of Australia's National Party, Matt Canavan, said.
"There are three Cs which we are challenged with at the moment: There’s COVID, there’s climate change and there’s China," the Senator told Sky News Australia, adding that China was "by far and away is the biggest threat to our liberties, freedoms and future prosperity."
The return of Barnaby Joyce as the leader of the National Party as well as the deputy prime minister has allowed Australia to focus on the key issues, and China policy is particularly important, Canavan told the broadcaster.
The relationship between the two Asia-Pacific neighbors has grown particularly tense over the past year.
