Australia calls for US-China dispute to be resolved quickly

Meanwhile, the Foreign Minister says he's met representatives from both China and the United States about the deadlock over the collision between a U-S spy plane and a Chinese military aircraft.

Mr Downer says he has told the Vice chairman of the Chinese central military committee, Australia would like to see the matter resolved quickly.

But he concedes Australia can't expect to have any influence on the situation.
