Beijing offers visa-free entry to Australians with defence talks flagged to avoid military clashes

Australians are being offered visa-free entry to China for visits lasting up to 15 days, as Prime Minister Anthony Albanese declares relations between both nations have been “renewed and revitalised”.

Following a formal meeting with Premier Li Qiang in Canberra, Mr Albanese said Chinese and Australian officials would also hold talks on improving military relations to avoid incidents such as last year’s sonar attack on HMAS Toowoomba.

“One of the very practical measures that we spoke about was improving military-to-military communication so as to avoid incidents,” Mr Albanese told reporters.
