To undertake this nuclear powered Submarine Endeavor . Is it accepted broadly that with that comes now a requirement for astray, you to reciprocate with things that it has previously been reluctant to do . 2 possible examples that id be thinking of de facto hun porting wants. A strategy builds up nuclear infrastructure in places like h m, eyes, sterling on the west coast, for instance, intermediate range miss solves, hosted on a stray and soil considered before and rejected before. And then the 2nd question just to follow up and sketch out further. The enhanced Force Posture initiatives that have been endorsed today. Minister dutton, youve given us a very broad outline, all categories of a craft plus the logistics and the maintenance. Could you expand any further, but with particular reference to the scale here, given the Marines Training in the north . I think the numbers about 5000 at any given point in time. What might the enhanced us Force Posture position be in and around australia . Thank you. I can simply say that from my perspective, there are no follow on reciprocal requirements of, of any kind. This is a, this is a partnership. This is a cooperative agreement with, with us, with australia, with the United Kingdom and any future decisions on issues such as the ones youve mentioned or of course, sovereign decisions for australia to make we certainly didnt go into this with the quid pro Quo Mindset and wed not outlined any specific reciprocal requirements. Again, we look to strengthen a partnership that is already very strong in australia. Has been with us through thick and thin in a number of different through a number of different challenges. And we look forward to building additional capability here. But also in some of the things that you mentioned earlier. Oh great. Yeah, thank you for your question. A couple point. Some one is that we have as prime minister on royce others supported out regularly, you know, made, he said, with the media highlighted the fact that we see incredible uncertainty within the united pacific its form, the basis of much about discussion here with our colleagues. Very significant uncertainty and more so than any time since the 2nd World War and we do believe its in destroyers national Security Interest to deepen our relationship with United States with other partners including through the chord as well. I have promised within the pacific, but there is a collaboration between like models at one continued patient origin. And from my perspective astray leads that pac, we want to make sure that page prevails in the, in the pacific and all of which we are doing as part of this discussion. And many others that weve had in the proceeding dies and months before now is open designed to continue that pace. Now region. So i do have an aspiration to make sure that we can increase the numbers of troops through the rotations. The Air Capability will be enhanced maritime capability enhanced, and certainly the Force Posture enhanced. And if that includes basing and includes the storage of, of different ordinances, i think that is in destroy his best interest in our national interest at this point in time. And Thats Something that ill be continuing to pursue, and we have in Principle Agreement to read a number of issues related to this. Now as a result of these discussions, so very grateful for the support of the United States in this regard. To finish on this point, i should have might have to clear in my opening remarks, we are very, very grateful for the support of the United States in afghanistan for us to take out 4100 people and race really led to work for us in australia, the stories of young girls and young women within the 4100, a very significant number. Within that 4100 would not a found a new life of safety. And any loss that they could have imagined without the support of the United States. There is no other country in the world. It could have held couple airport. And the us had 4000 troops there. And the british forces a 1000 without their efforts. So we wouldnt have been able to take out those 4100 people. And i think frankly, its time for people to pause, reflect on that and to acknowledge the sacrifice that be made over 20 year period. But for those 4000 troops and in the brits to be there along with others, there are no European Countries now lives in countries, not middle eastern countries, prepared to step up and provide that support and as a country way, very grateful for what the non such was able to do Abraham Massey of air force magazine. Ok, were going to leave that there. Youve been watching the u. S. Secretaries of State And Defense as the Lincoln And Lloyd austin, speaking alongside there are straight in counterparts. This trillion foreign minister, rece pain, and studies defense sex. Repeat the ducking by talking the day after the announcement of that alliance along with the u. K. Was announced. Lets go to our State Apartment correspond, it wasnt jordan whos been listening in to all of that. What did you make it resolution to Force Posture . Well, it seems as if the net ministration is charting a new course in Foreign Policy. People who follow us politics will recall that Joe Biden, the u. S. President had a very lengthy career in the us senate where hes focused on Foreign Policy at one point, sharing the senate foreign relations committee. Now we have seen that the president has talked in recent weeks after the withdrawal of us Troops Ref Ganna stand. That there are other threat in other parts of the world that the us needs to pay attention to. And certainly going back to his time is Vice President under morocco, obama. Theres been a lot of talk about ho recalibrating or rebalancing, putting new Effort And Attention on threats in the, in the pacific region. And the top of that list is the government in beijing. And so certainly, while this deal, this new was 3 Part Alliance with london in combat of would represent a new military presence. Certainly the addition of nuclear power submarines in the south pacific is certainly a signal that the us is willing to actually put money where its intention have been for the better part now of 12 to 15 years. And what are we to make of the, the secretary of States Assertion that france is a vital pop now and that he places a fundamental value on the u. S. S. Relationship with frogs. Well, i think they could be suggested that a part of recalibrating, the u. S. Is Foreign Policy include taking a look at a long standing relationships. The relationship with the u. S. Is nato partners are being key among them and asking the question whether the relationship is capable of moving into the 21st century. What changes even though they may be painful, need to be made in order to continue moving ahead. Lets not forget the us and, and france have a keen interest, for example, in checking the spread of iso related groups in west africa. And certainly youre not going to find washington standing in the way of parents as decision to take out an ice all affiliated person, as we saw happening on the continent on thursday. So this is a situation where Joe Biden may actually be pushing a more active us Foreign Policy, but also one that perhaps is a balding as well. So youre not going to see the us and france, which have had a, a relationship really going back to the founding of this country, abandoning each other at this point. Ill just here state department correspondent, rosalyn jordan. I live in washington. Many facts did ross. Thats bringing ethan pool. Hes a Research Associate at the Quincy Institute for responsible statecraft. He georgia. Far skype from washington. This alliance is all about the perceived threat from china. What do you make about the announcement of this . And it took everybody by surprised the timing of it. The timing is incredibly important for 2 reasons. First, coming after the withdrawal from afghanistan, this is a clear signal from the biden administration that u. S. Foreign policy will not disengage from the world. And in fact, we will be re and we oriented around competing with china. And i would also mentioned that although President Biden and prime ministers, Morrison And Johnson yesterday did not mention china explicitly when they talked about august. If you looked at the presser, earlier from today or earlier today, china was heavily featured and named by most people on the stage. Second, this comes, this announcement comes less than a week after President Biden n c. Jim ping spoke for only the 2nd time of the presidency and 7 months after the 1st time they spoke. Now this announcement about august must be seen alongside other announcements that were made after the call, particularly regarding taiwan. There were reports that last friday us officials met with Tom Tom when he defense officials in annapolis. And also that the administration was considering changing the name of the representative office to ones representative office in washington. There were other announcements specifically related to a Quad Meeting next week, and the potential levying of new terrorists if the administration goes forward with a new section 3, a one investigation. All of these must be seen as clear signals from the administration that in the wake of the biden, she talks, dividing, administration continues to increase pressure on beijing and wants to set the Preacher Course of the relationship on washington her. Okay, so that has to be asked, how is beijing likely to react . This ratcheting out of pressure . Well, we already saw how beijing has reacted to ox, which is that which is that being said that this is another example of washington and its allies taking d, stabilizing actions in the region and seeking to contain china and having a cold war mentality. Now although i do not necessarily agree with that last characterization of it, i would say that we will expect asian to respond as it has to similar action since the trump administration, which is that its not going to back down. Its going to find ways to maintain the balance in beijing saver and tensions will continue to ratchet up. So what youre saying is that this could trigger a fairly dangerous period in the, in the pacific region. I would certainly say that this, you know, we are entering a dangerous period and in fact weve been there for many years now. This was reiterated by reports that came out earlier this week about general milli, calling chinese officials twice in the waiting months of the administration. Because intelligent showed that china thought washington was going to start a war. Now, by the, by an administration is much more tempered and the officials are more familiar with dealing with china. However, us trying to competition is just getting start. And so not only will we enter a more dangerous period in the meantime, but over the long term, we can expect these kind of dynamics to even get hot if and many thanks, have a good to talk to you and pull them in washington. My pleasure. As we said earlier, as the blank and cold from some valuable partner to the United States, thats because the french government is angry about this new alliance. It already had a multi 1000000000. 00 deal to build diesel submarines for australia, but now thats gone away. Heres what france is, foreign minister had to say earlier, civil mobile phone say i could do it is really a stab in the back. We built a relationship of trust with australia and this trust was betrayed. And im angry today with a lot of bitterness about this breach of contract. This is not done between allies, especially when theres been 2 years of negotiations for this Contract Camera costs as of, as a Thing Fellow in the europe, russia, and Eurasia Program at the center for strategic and international studies. He explains the impact on francis relations with a straight to the us. It is clear that yesterday the decision came as a huge shock for, for paris, the french author. It is, do not understand how such a crucial punish between harrison come there could be dropped over night. This was a big a long, feathery partnership between france and australia. And it will have a huge, so on friends as relations, not only with australia, every also with the u. S. And potentially with the u. K. Dr. Young french minister told me this morning that the administrative Bite And Administration acted like the previous administration by not caught anything consulting its close his eyes, france, which is a key actor indian diabetic. So we can expect that they will be tense relations in the coming weeks and months between them. Paris, washington come there and given the unprecedented challenges in their best, it makes no sense that the u. S. U. K. And australia acts on their own without the cooperating closely with a key actor suggests friends with also in japan and we cannot have such a limited corporation. France is a nation of the best to speak with others is there is there is there more than 7000 soldiers permanent deployed in the region . We sentence submarines for Gates Aircraft Carrier in the region. So we are an actor. We have to play a role, and this is kenny, disappointing that such. Try to open the shift, excuse me. A 2nd look at some of the years that were following the far from says that the special forces of killed at abilene also highway the leader of iso in the greater Salary Region President Mario Micron held the operation a success in frances fight against armed groups in west africa, so hell. Know the death of abilene high, which is a decisive blog i saw in soho, but also is cohesion. It will certainly have difficulty replacing its leader with some one of the in for a minute to play is the president of the institute for European Perspective and security. He says the killing of also highway is a huge victory for coalition forces battling on groups in the south. Fighting against terrorism is not only taking away or decapitation to capital using the leadership of the jury Summons Ation in mccomb said that the focus he said this doing the Post Summit in november 2000 and january 2020. Thats the leadership of state and greater sarah, the leadership of the district attorneys have ms. Mom to sustain group of muslim and islam will to be talkative. Theres been significant hits against some of their leaders. Again, we have the impression that france is very happy that they have taken away. What did not answer woody, but they forget to mention that the strike is not the new strike. It happened more or less 2020 days ago, mid august. That it was an opportunistic strike. They were not targeting him besides, they were targeting what seem to be a judge is judge this a scenario to people on the bike. They were not special for the targeted game. So hope to this ticket. It is a reality. It is as of course, as a, from the mention a to be as knowledge as a victory for of the, for the international forces, fighting the tourism. But it would not change the impact or the dynamism of its time. Groups for various reasons. First of all, islamic state in a greater sahara has been significantly weakened, not only by the fact that the french, the international forces and the regional forces, ive been fighting very actively against them. But they have been significant fights between judges themself between the judges. Groups, lead 12, and judges grouped linked to islamic state, english as our lead us from the west.

England counts in hurricane starting to thought new in that Group G Game against france on rent. This go from here. I mean, so the game finished to, to see only the top team and each group guarantee a place in the last 60 spot. Now, little messy.

But it was a reminder that teams will not roll over the parents large amount that will be particularly kings of them. And Club Ruge are based on saying that the strongest in belgium, theyre probably better than most teams. And the, the majority of the P S g will face in the french link. So it was a step up the means of opposition last night. But as a reminder, the parasite man, the rest of the team, has to work hard to allow the start to shine and it didnt happen last night. The mid failed is, and the defense didnt really find the right balance to set the stars out. And to show in the ultimately they, they will, they will click but its going to take some time. I remember that, that name all and messy have played together before very successfully about the loaner and him, but a is a different type of plan. He relies on this phenomenal pace to, to, to terrify defenders. I think the combination of all 3 with different qualities will eventually prove, i think, very positive for parents as well. I think that you have to include them amongst the favorites. You have to follow the money in the Champions League and the money is with bags. Asthma with not just the city with chelsea and by munich i think it was a very strong and but, but the history have not only been little messy. They put a very good goalkeeper in a, into a room or the italy and they have the dutch midfielder without him whos won the liverpool, theyve added extra play as the season, and eventually things will click.
