The creation of a tripartite defense alliance Aukus Australia, Great Britain and the United States undermines regional security and is an extremely irresponsible step, china ambassador to Washington Qin Gan, writes TASS.
Speaking on video conferencing organized by the George Bush Foundation and the Center for Jimmy Carter, Chinese politician stressed that the appearance of a new military alliance will only speed up the arms race. According to Ghana, the creation of Aukus led by the United States undermines stability in the region, as well as neglects the efforts of countries to non-proliferate nuclear weapons. “It is extremely irresponsible,” he stressed.
September 16, USA, United Kingdom and Australia concluded an agreement on defense partnership. The coalition was named Aukus (Australia, United Kingdom, USA). The purpose of the transaction is to protect and defend the common interests of the parties in the Indo-Pacific region and the combination of efforts in the development of the defense sector.
NATO countries stated that they will revise their strategy after creating Aukus.
