China’s Foreign Ministry on Monday urged Australia to seize the opportunity in bilateral relations and take concrete action to improve trade ties, in response to the Australian treasurer’s call for easing coal trade relations with China.

The ministry said that China’s position on practical cooperation with Australia and other countries has always been clear.

It’s hoped that Australia can seize the opportunity to correct its approach to China-related issues, deal with China-Australia economic and trade relations based on mutual respect and benefits, and create favorable conditions for the healthy and stable development of China-Australia relations.

The remarks came after Australian Treasurer Jim Chalmers called for a removal of the “coal restriction” on Australia on Sunday, saying that any move by China to “relax restrictions” on Australian coal exports to China would be a key step in restoring ties between the two nations, Bloomberg reported earlier.
