Dear
Resident of the Berowra Electorate,
Yesterday, Australia, the United Kingdom and the
United States agreed to the creation of an enhanced
trilateral security partnership called AUKUS -
a partnership where our technology, our scientists,
our industry, our defence forces are all working
together to deliver a safer and more secure
region.
The first major initiative of AUKUS will
be to deliver a nuclear-powered submarine fleet for
Australia.
Over the next eighteen months, our
nations will work together to seek to determine the
best way forward to achieve this.
This is an
historic opportunity for the three nations, with
like-minded allies and partners, to protect shared
values and promote security and prosperity in the
Indo-Pacific region.
Next week, the Prime
Minister Scott Morrison will attend
the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue (Quad)
Leaders Meeting in Washington D.C. to meet with
President Biden, as well as Prime Minister Modi of
India and Prime Minister Suga of Japan.
