An Examination of AUKUS

An Examination of AUKUS

An in-depth exploration of the Australia–UK–US defence capability agreement (AUKUS) and what it means for the UK's foreign and security policy in the Indo-Pacific.

Launched in September 2021, AUKUS is well into its third year. The unique trilateral partnership has the potential to bring about massive changes in the Indo-Pacific security landscape. But what exactly is it? Should we see it as a new type of alliance, or simply another arms deal? Is it just a trilateral procurement framework, or something far more original in the realm of multilateralism? In this episode, host Neil Melvin is joined by Charles Edel, Senior Adviser and the Inaugural Australia Chair at the Centre for Strategic and International Studies, and Dr Philip Shetler-Jones, Senior Research Fellow, Indo-Pacific Security at RUSI, to answer these very questions and to delve into what AUKUS means for the future of UK foreign policy.

This episode is brought to you as part of a programme supported by the Embassy of Japan.
