在疫情、经济、气候环境等诸多议题的影响下，澳大利亚时隔9年再次出现政权轮替，国内政坛也渐趋多元化。随着工党政府的重新执政，澳大利亚外交政策也出现了若干调整：一方面持续优化与美国等传统盟友在“印太地区”的战略布局；另一方面也缓和紧张多年的中澳关系，逐步恢复两国正常的互动。然而，即便对外贸易在疫情期间持续增长，澳大利亚同时也面临巨大的经济压力，国际能源及原材料的价格上涨更加重了国内通胀危机，政府提出的应对措施也未见明显成效，各界对未来的经济前景的展望仍不乐观。
Under the influence of many issues，such as the COVID-19，economy，climate and environment，Australia was once again experiencing a political succession after nine years，and its domestic politics were becoming more diverse. With the return of the Labor government，Australia’s foreign policy have also undergone some adjustments. On the one hand，it have continued to optimize its strategic layout with traditional allies such as the United States in the “Indo-Pacific region”；on the other hand，it have eased the relations between China and Australia after years of tension and opposition，and gradually resumed normal interaction between the two countries. However，even though the foreign trade continued to grow during the COVID-19，Australia was also facing huge economic pressure. The rising international energy and raw materials have aggravated the domestic inflation crisis. The countermeasures proposed by the government have not achieved significant results，and all sectors of society were still not optimistic about the future economic prospects.
