US-UK-Australia Submarine Plans Move Ahead; China Has Said it Reveals ‘Cold War Mentality’
(Worthy News) – The U.S., Britain, and Australia have unveiled a multi-decade plan designed to boost Western security in the Asia Pacific at a time of growing Chinese power, by enabling Australia to buy nuclear-powered submarines from the U.S., and eventually build its own.
President Biden met with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and their military chiefs in San Diego on Monday for talks on the next steps for the AUKUS security partnership, first announced in the fall of 2021.
The initiative was from the outset panned by China, and its ally Russia, both of which have accused the U.S. and U.K. of encouraging proliferation by offering nuclear propulsion technology to Australia. The U.S. has only once before shared the technology with another country – Britain, more than six decades ago. [ Source: CNS News (Read More…) ]
