9月18日，由中国人民外交学会与澳大利亚澳中关系国家基金会共同举办的中澳高级别对话第九次会议在北京举行。来自中澳两国政府相关部门的负责人以及来自商、学、媒体和文化界近40名代表出席会议。

中方代表团团长、外交学会名誉会长李肇星在开幕式致辞中表示，经过近些年来的努力，中澳双方发展两国关系的意愿更加坚定，方向更加明确。我们要珍惜、维护中澳关系来之不易的改善发展势头，积极落实两国领导人达成的重要共识，坚持相互尊重、求同存异、互利合作、和衷共济，努力排除各种干扰，推动中澳关系走向光明的未来，为改革完善全球治理体系和构建人类命运共同体作出新的贡献。

澳方代表团团长、前贸易部长埃默森表示，今年7月，澳大利亚总理阿尔巴尼斯连任后不久即对中国进行访问，体现了澳方对澳中关系的高度重视。澳中双方应加强对话，探讨可以深化合作的领域，妥善管控存在的分歧。今年是澳中自贸协定生效实施10周年，两国经济高度互补，双边贸易额迅速增长。参加此次对话的澳方代表来自农业、资源、教育、卫生、智库等各个领域，期待着同中方代表进行深入交流。

2023年11月，澳大利亚总理安东尼·阿尔巴尼斯对中国进行正式访问，两国领导人就中澳关系及国际和地区问题深入交换意见。中澳双方发表《中澳总理年度会晤联合成果声明》，声明提到，双方欢迎恢复中澳高级别对话。2024年6月，国务院总理李强对澳大利亚进行正式访问，和阿尔巴尼斯总理举行会谈，并共同举行中澳总理年度会晤。在成果声明中提到，双方欢迎中澳高级别对话发挥的重要作用。

中澳高级别对话是目前中澳间唯一的一轨半对话机制。

The Ninth Meeting of the China-Australia High-Level Dialogue Held in Beijing

On September 18, the ninth Meeting of the China-Australia High-Level Dialogue, co-hosted by the Chinese People’s Institute of Foreign Affairs (CPIFA) and the National Foundation for Australia-China Relations (NFACR), was held in Beijing. Approximately 40 participants from both sides, comprising senior officials from the relevant government departments of the two countries, and representatives from the business, academic, media, and cultural circles attended the meeting.

Head of the Chinese delegation and CPIFA Honorary President Li Zhaoxing, said in his opening remarks that thanks to the joint efforts in recent years, China and Australia are more determined and clearer about the direction of developing our bilateral relations. We need to cherish and maintain the hard-won momentum of improvement in China-Australia relations, and proactively follow up on the important common understandings reached between our leaders. Both sides should uphold mutual respect, seek common ground while shelving differences, pursue mutually beneficial cooperation, stand together through thick and thin, avoid disruptions, and strive for a bright future of China-Australia relations. Thus let the two countries make new contribution to the reform and improvement of the global governance system and the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

Head of the Australian delegation and former Australian Trade Minister Craig Emerson, said in his opening remarks that Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese made a successful visit to China shortly after his reelection, which was a signal of the importance of the bilateral relationship. The two sides should enhance dialogue to define areas where Australia and China can deepen cooperation as well as address and manage differences. This year marks the 10th anniversary of the entry into force of the Australia-China free trade agreement. Since 2015, the bilateral trade volume has increased significantly. The Australian delegation for this dialogue is from diverse sectors including agriculture, resources, education, etc. We look forward to the continuation of a conversation on important matters.

In November 2023, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese paid an official visit to China. The leaders of both countries engaged in in-depth discussions on China-Australia relations as well as international and regional issues. China and Australia issued the "Joint Statement of Outcomes of the Annual Leaders' Meeting between China and Australia," which mentioned that both sides welcomed the resumption of the China-Australia High-Level Dialogue. In June 2024, Premier Li Qiang of the State Council paid an official visit to Australia, held talks with Prime Minister Albanese, and jointly conducted the annual China-Australia leaders' meeting. The outcomes statement noted that both sides welcomed the important role played by the China-Australia High-Level Dialogue.

The China-Australia High-Level Dialogue is currently the only track 1.5 dialogue mechanism between China and Australia.
