New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters met with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi for talks over the weekend discussing issues of peace and security in the asia-pacific.

 

New Zealand is the first western developed country to sign up to China’s One Belt One Road initiative, an infrastructure development scheme looking to link Europe and Asia.

 

Mr Peters, who has been labelled ‘anti-china’, had a change of tone, speaking highly of China-New Zealand relations says Chinese foreign minister.
