Australian MPs to reportedly visit Taiwan

Australia will end a three-year hiatus this weekend as MPs are expected to fly into Taiwan to engage in bipartisan talks.

The group of politicians includes former deputy prime minister and Nationals leader Barnaby Joyce, two Labor members of the Albanese government and three members from the Coalition.

Trade, security and agriculture are expected to dominate talks during the five-day visit, as Australia aims to preserve peace in the Indo-Pacific Region.
