China seeks to increase its influence in the South Pacific, expanding security and economic ties with island states that are historically allied with Australia.
Exports of Australian goods to China hit 219 billion Australian dollars ($144.4 billion) in 2023, higher than the $98.4 billion exported in 2019, before the COVID-19 pandemic and the imposition of tariffs according to data from the Australian government.
Australia is heavily dependent on China for its exports of raw materials, such as iron ore and liquefied natural gas, while China relies on Australia for goods like iron ore and LNG, highlighting the interdependence of the two economies.
