☆ Australian Prime Minister Announces China Visit Hours Before Leaving for US to Meet Biden
  + stars: | 2023-10-21 | by ( Associated Press | Oct. | At P.M. | ) www.usnews.com   time to read: +5 min
CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he will visit China in early November, making the announcement Sunday hours before he was to fly to the United States to meet with President Joe Biden. Albanese will become the first Australian prime minister to visit China in seven years when he travels to Beijing and Shanghai on Nov. 4-7. The visit will come near the 50th anniversary of Labor Party leader Gough Whitlam becoming the first Australian prime minister to visit the People's Republic of China in 1973. Albanese accepted an invitation weeks ago to visit China this year, but finding suitable dates had been challenging. It will be the ninth time Biden has met with Albanese as prime minister.

DARWIN, Australia—U.S. Marines use the commercial port in this northern Australian city to unload aircraft and other supplies for nearby training. But at the port gate, vehicles pass underneath a sign in Chinese. The sign, which says Landbridge Darwin Port in Chinese characters, is a reminder of a long-simmering controversy: the 2015 decision by local authorities to lease the port to the Australian unit of China’s Landbridge Group. Now, with competition between the U.S. and China intensifying in the Indo-Pacific, the 99-year lease—which some former defense officials and analysts say gives China a potentially valuable foothold in a strategically important area—is under renewed scrutiny.
