Abstract
Ever since AUKUS’ public announcement three years ago, China has been staunchly opposed to the partnership.
Beijing has blasted AUKUS diplomatically and mounted a concerted campaign to challenge its legality.
China has said AUKUS is “driven by Cold War thinking,” “fuelling military confrontation,” and creating “additional nuclear proliferation risks”.
The aim of AUKUS is for the Australian navy to acquire nuclear-powered submarines, with Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States also collaborating on other advanced military technologies.
