Opposition Leader Peter Dutton says China cannot dialogue with Australia in “good faith” while Beijing continues to amass nuclear weapons.
“If the government’s got a dialogue wand it’s a productive dialogue then of course it should be pursued – but if we’re just being handled then that’s not a productive use of time,” Mr Dutton told Sky News Australia.
“The Australian government needs to be serious in the discussions and we need to ask China to explain their human rights abuses and to explain what’s happening in relation to their military build up.
“The government should be asking of China that if their conducting talks in good faith … a sign of that good faith would be pulling back on the rapid expansion of their military arsenal.”
