Chinese Premier Li Qiang will make a rare visit to Australia this weekend, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Tuesday (11 June), as trade relations between the two countries improve. The four-day trip, which begins Saturday, comes after Beijing lifted most of a slew of trade barriers it had imposed on Australian exports, including coal, timber, barley and wine.
