Ties between Australia and China are unravelling fast.
Beijing has imposed a tariff of up to 212 percent on Australian wine, the latest in an escalating trade and diplomatic dispute.
China says it is a measure against dumping to protect its own wine industry.
But Australia believes the reason is political.
The government in Canberra has criticised China’s handling of COVID-19, as well as human rights issues in Xinjiang and Hong Kong.
Is there room to repair the relationship?
