How is New Zealand's relationship with China under the coalition Government?
Description
New Zealand’s rolling out the red carpet for China’s foreign minister -- with Wang Yi’s visit marking the highest-level diplomatic engagement with New Zealand’s largest trading partner on our soil in at least seven years.
It comes as China continues advocating for its ‘One China’ policy with Taiwan, while our coalition government explores expanding our trading horizons.
So is our relationship with China still strong, and can it survive China’ slowing economy?
Today on The Front Page, NZ Contemporary China Research Centre director and Victoria University associate professor Jason Young joins us to discuss our relationship with China, how it’s blossomed, and where it’s headed.
