I'm not sure that's really bending the knee.

Their embargoes have clearly hurt Australia and even if they haven't kept it 100% absolute, that's not really the criteria.

The fact that they had to go back on it shows their reliance.

Not to mention half the country is rationing electricity because of their coal reliance.Coal that they can get cheap from AU.

At the very least, they recognize that being sanctioned out is not a good idea.

So step back to throw a proper punch later so to speak.
