Abstract

AUKUS (Australia, United Kingdom, United States) is a trilateral defense treaty concluded between Australia, Great Britain, and the United States. As part of the emergency security pact announced by US President Joe Biden, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, and Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison, the US and UK will reportedly provide Australia with the technology and capability to host nuclear submarines that could be deployed in the Indo-Pacific region. It is being used to prevent China's growing influence in the region. The agreement will allow Australia to use American technology to build nuclear submarines for the first time in its history. As a result, Australia will become the seventh country—after the US, UK, France, China, India, and Russia—to operate nuclear submarines.
