It was a high stakes 90-minute meeting aimed at further stabilising Australia's relationship with China.  

But what did discussions between Foreign Minister Penny Wong and her Chinese counterpart Wang Yi achieve today? There's no word yet on when the final trade sanctions on beef and lobsters - imposed by China - will be lifted. However, Senator Wong has indicated Premier Li Qiang would later this year make the first high-level visit to Australia by a Chinese leader in seven years.
