The center-right National Party looks set to win the largest share of the vote in New Zealand’s election on Saturday, but it will need to form a coalition to govern.
Christopher Luxon, leader of the National Party, greets his supporters at Auckland Domain in Auckland, New Zealand, on Sept. 27. New Zealand’s main opposition National Party would need the support of two smaller parties to form a new government, the latest opinion poll shows. executive in Chicago, Christopher Luxon marketed deodorant to American men with a Super Bowl spot that mocked “wusses” and “mama’s boys.
But Luxon could soften that stance by returning to a more business-first approach with Beijing, some close to him say. And that could increase pressure from traditional partners in the Five Eyes intelligence sharing network, where New Zealand has at times come under That it’s taken until a few days before the election for Luxon to expound on his China approach reflects the nonexistent role foreign policy has played in the campaign.When the outside world is mentioned, it’s usually in terms of trade, not foreign policy.
“There was very much a feeling that if China was embraced, then it would become ‘more like us’ and that was a positive thing,” said John Key, New Zealand’s prime minister at the time, who is now Luxon’s political mentor.Luxon joined Key on a 2013 trade delegation to Shanghai and announced the easing of visa restrictions for visitors from China. But he also continued to pursue more unorthodox ideas, like the reality TV show. Travel between the two nations — and the airline’s bottom line — soared.
With Australia increasingly adopting Washington’s hard line on China, Greener said there is an increasing need for a nation like New Zealand to be publicly neutral but privately advocate for the rules-based order.Greener said she would expect a Luxon government to strike a balance, but with more of a focus on trade with Beijing. China is by far New Zealand’s largest trading partner, buying key commodities including dairy, meat and wood products.
