China is trying to flex it's muscles against Australia

Placing prohibitive tariffs on so many of our exports to their Country.
At least this time around, Australia is starting to stand up to them, instead of Kowtowing to them as in the past.
The Government has referred China to the World Trade Organisation for it's Tariffs on our Barley imports.
Australia is stating that China is going against the terms of the World Trade Organisation.
I am pleased we a taking a stand.
Australian producers are going to be hurt big time with Tariffs so high that it is uneconomical to export product to China.
Many producers will go under because of China's Belligerence.
Come on World, Stand up to China and say, No More.

I hope our politicians won't be cowards. We need to stand together. 🇪🇺

@helenS If Countries took a Multilateral stand against China then they may be able to make a difference.
Though I suspect there are too many "Poorer" Countries that want China's Money.
Even our own Victorian Government has signed up to the Belt and Road Initiative. Treasonous, in my book.

Agree with you.
And I'm afraid some European politicians may say "Ah great Australia is out so we are in." 😐
