The Australian government is being urged today to become a diplomatic go-between and help ease tensions between China and the United States to "avert the horror of great power conflict".Fifty prominent Australians, including former foreign ministers Bob Carr and Gareth Evans, are calling on the Albanese government to take an "activist middle power" role to reduce tensions between Australia's largest trading partner and major military ally.The group outlined their plan in a public statement which stressed they were "apprehensive these tensions may lead to direct military conflict, which would risk dragging Australia into war".
