Sino-Australia relations / Chinese spacecraft landing on the moon

On Friday's Backchat, Sino-Australian relations and China's spacecraft landing on the moon. Relations between Australia and China, its largest trading partner, have soured since Morrison called for an independent international investigation into the origins of the coronavirus pandemic earlier this year. China has blocked billions of dollars worth of Australian exports from lobsters to wine in recent months, all the while refusing to accept phone calls from Australian ministers.

Ties soured further this week when a senior Chinese official posted an image/cartoon of an Australian soldier holding a knife with blood on it to the throat of an Afghan child, prompting Morrison to demand an apology from Beijing.

What are the impacts on both sides? How can the matter be resolved? Is this a long-term thing?

From 9:15am-9:30am, we'll be discussing China's spacecraft landing on the moon surface earlier this week.
