ADELAIDE, Australia—Australia will suspend a dispute with China before the World Trade Organization over antidumping duties on Australian wine after Beijing agreed to an expedited review of the measures, another sign of improving ties between the two countries.
Beijing’s review of its duties on Australian wine imports is expected to take five months and Canberra will resume its dispute at the WTO if the duties aren’t removed at the end of the review, Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Sunday. Albanese also said he plans to meet with President Xi Jinping in China next month, the first visit to China by an Australian prime minister since 2016.
