    economic coercion

    Mate, economic coercion is a daily occurrence for normal people. That’s how our entire economic system is built. You’re gonna have to come up with a better name than that.

    Maybe to start with America can stop doing “economic coercion against democracies” itself.

    I’m sure he has plenty to say but his policies resulted in a poor relationship with China and Australian industries were impacted.

      The Libs were also responsible for cutting funding to our Oceania and close Pacific friends for years, resulting in trashing Australia’s reputation and opening the door for China to rapidly expand their influence in the region.

      It was only when most of the damage was done that they reversed course.
