Each week, we give the world globe a spin, and see where we land. Then we take the kids of Australia on an audio excursion to visit that country and its people.

Today on Squiz the World we're visiting China. We're hearing a lot about it at the moment - because our Prime Minister, Anthony Albanese, just held a meeting with the Chinese President, Xi Jinping... President Xi's first meeting with an Aussie PM in six years. It's hoped that the 32 minutes they spent together will lead to a thawing in what's been a tricky relationship lately.
