China's deputy ambassador to Australia says Prime Minister Scott Morrisons reaction to an inflammatory tweet by a Chinese official may have further damaged relations between the two countries.
Wang Xining told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation that Mr Morrison, in calling for an apology from China for the tweet, has caused more chinese people to be aware of the contents of the Brereton Report into alleged Australian war crimes in Afghanistan.
