ALBAWABA - Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said on Tuesday that Chinese Premier Li Qiang will pay a rare visit to Australia this weekend, as commercial relations between the two nations continue to strengthen.

The four-day trip, which starts on Saturday, comes after Beijing removed the majority of the many trade restrictions it had placed on Australian exports, which included wine, coal, lumber, and barley.
