AUKUS Security Alliance Exposes EU’s Fecklessness<\/h3>\n

Soeren Kern | Gatestone Institute<\/a> | September 29, 2021<\/p>\n

Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States have announced<\/a> a new tripartite strategic alliance aimed at countering China\u2019s growing assertiveness in the Indo-Pacific region. The AUKUS defense agreement, under which Australia will acquire American-designed nuclear-powered submarines, is a welcome paradigm shift intended to enhance the projection of Western military power in the region.<\/p>\n

AUKUS will supplement the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue<\/a> (also known as \u201cThe Quad\u201d), a military partnership between Australia, India, Japan and the United States aimed at protecting freedom of navigation in the broader Asia-Pacific region. It will also strengthen Five Eyes<\/a>, an intelligence-sharing alliance comprising Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States.<\/p>\n

AUKUS, which has been described<\/a> as the foundation of an Indo-Pacific version of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), appears to be the centerpiece of an emerging security architecture to check China\u2019s territorial ambitions.<\/p>\n
