"The Chinese government has made it emphatically clear that the (price)
negotiations on iron ore will be commercial negotiations between the steel mills
and the suppliers," Macfarlane said.
China plans to meet its growing energy demand with a fourfold increase in
nuclear production by 2020.
Wen, who arrived Saturday for the first visit to Australia by a Chinese
premier in 18 years, is also expected to discuss with Howard a free trade
agreement which is under negotiation.
The premier is to stop in Fiji on April 5 for an economic forum between China
and the Pacific Islands before heading to New Zealand. He is to wrap up his trip
on April 8 in Cambodia.
