Products like coal and timber, but in not all restrictions have been restricted. Some remain on items like lobster and wine. I spoke to clive russell, who explains whats changed between beijing and canberra. The Centreleft Labor government was replacing the right wing government. That allowed a reset of relations between beijing and canberra which had been rocky. There had not been benefit for other party from the action china took. It cost china a lot of money to buy coal and barley from other places, so it wasnt really a win for them and it didnt hurt australia as far as australias miners were able to find alternate markets and didnt suffer that much at all. You said some tariffs remain but there are other sticking points in a relationship so is it possible they could go back to where they were or is a relationship on its way to recovery . China will always have difficulty with human rights and democratic freedoms and things like that. It is well understood by both sides who come fro

Other democrats used the downgrade as an opportunity to point the finger at republicans for their role in the recent debt limit fight. While republicans blame joe biden and democrats for trillions of dollars in new spending. Many economists dismiss the downgrade, including Jp Morgan Chase ceo jamie diamond, who called it ridiculous and said that the decision ultimately didnt really matter. And he may not be wrong.
