New Zealand foreign minister calls China relationship complex
==========

New Zealand Foreign Minister Winston Peters described the country's relationship with China as "complex" and expressed concerns about the hardening rhetoric across the Taiwan Strait, human rights violations in Hong Kong, and China's increased engagement in Pacific security sectors. Peters emphasized that China is a vital economic partner to New Zealand but also highlighted the importance of adhering to internationally agreed human rights frameworks. New Zealand has become increasingly vocal about its concerns over China's behavior in recent years. Peters stated that New Zealand needs to clearly articulate its interests and be transparent about areas of convergence and divergence with China. Earlier, Peters mentioned that New Zealand is not considering joining the Aukus security pact between Australia, the United States, and the UK.
