In recent years, relations between China and Australia have seen significant improvement, yet China's ambassador to Australia has issued a warning about the resurgence of a 'Cold War mentality'. Diplomatic ties between the two countries were strained for several years, but the last four years have shown positive dynamics. However, the Chinese ambassador pointed out that there is a risk that bilateral relations could return to confrontation if this mentality is not overcome. This warning comes at a time when both nations are attempting to stabilize their relationship after years of tension.
