Australia has expressed its wishes to join in a formal complaint launched by the European Union (EU) against the Chinese communist regime over its use of coercive trade tactics directed at nations it disagrees with.
The EU filed the complaint to the World Trade Organization (WTO) on Jan. 27 as a result of Beijing’s unofficial economic embargo of Lithuania after the European nation allowed Taiwan to open a de facto embassy under the name “Taiwan” rather than “Chinese Taipei.”
This is a direct challenge to the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) “One China” policy, which claims that Taiwan is a part of mainland China, with only 13 members of the United Nations and the Vatican recognising it as an independent nation. Australia is not one of them.
