Antinuclear

Australian news, and some related international items

Is the USA now considering withdrawal from AUKUS?

A little bird sent me this:

“I have just had it from a strong source in America that if Australia fails to reach an article 14 arrangement with IAEA within the next three months then irrespective of the presidential result America will give notice of withdrawal from AUKUS 

 However it may negotiate with Australia to use Garden Island as a base for its Indian Ocean fleet 

 Apparently major contractors involved with the first phase of AUKUS are lobbying the USA government to continue irrespective of what occurs with AUKUS but so far with little success”

Answers to the Questions on Notice are published in due course on the Australian Parliament House website.
