刘劲松大使会见澳大利亚商业理事会首席执行官

9月16日，刘劲松大使会见澳大利亚商业理事会首席执行官布莱克，双方就稳定和发展中澳关系、深化和拓展中澳经贸合作等共同关心的事宜进行了友好交流。

刘大使表示，中澳经贸合作是双边关系的压舱石，互利互补、潜力巨大；澳前领导人曾表示澳最需要的是朋友、能源、贸易与良好生态。我认为无论从哪个角度讲，中国都是澳方最重要、最可靠的伙伴之一。此次会见是我递交国书后的首次正式对外活动，我愿与澳工商界一道，进一步深化中澳经贸合作，推动中澳全面战略伙伴关系稳中有进。

布莱克表示，十分荣幸成为刘大使递交国书后会见的首位客人，澳商业理事会愿继续为促进中澳经贸合作发挥积极作用。

Ambassador Liu Jinsong Meets with Chief Executive of the Business Council of Australia

On September 16, Ambassador Liu Jinsong met with Bran Black, Chief Executive of the Business Council of Australia for a friendly exchange of views on matters of mutual interest, including maintaining the sound and steady development of China-Australia relations and deepening and expanding bilateral economic and trade cooperation.

Ambassador Liu noted that as the ballast of China-Australia relations, bilateral economic and trade cooperation is mutually beneficial and holds enormous potential. A former Australian leader once said that what Australia needs most is friends, energy, trade and a healthy environment. From every perspective, I believe China can be one of Australia’s most important and reliable partners. This meeting is my first official engagement following the presentation of credentials. I look forward to working with the Australian business community to further deepen China-Australia economic and trade cooperation and contribute to the steady and sustained progress of the China-Australia Comprehensive Strategic Partnership.

Mr Black said it was a great honor to be the first guest to meet with Ambassador Liu following the presentation of credentials, and that the BCA was ready to continue to play an active role in promoting China-Australia economic and trade cooperation.
