Australia, China discuss regional energy security, Albanese says

CANBERRA: Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said he discussed regional energy security with his Chinese counterpart Li Qiang by phone on Tuesday, as China’s fuel export ban exacerbates energy disruptions linked to the Iran war. China is a major source of ‌fuel in ‌Asia and supplied a third ‌of ⁠Australia’s jet fuel ⁠last year. Beijing has banned fuel exports to protect its domestic market although the government has not acknowledged the decision.
