IS CHINA TELLING THE TRUTH?

Rory Medcalf and Richard McGregor moderated by Professor Jane Golley

The rise of China is one of the biggest and most pivotal stories of our generation. And yet relations with our largest trading partner continue to plummet with Australia being put in the deep freeze after calling out Beijing for exercising undue influence in our polity and for launching massive cyberattacks against our vital institutions. Can relations with the communist superpower recover? Or is Australia destined to become an enemy of the State?

Presented by ANU.
