From johnmenadue.com: Peter Kent argues that Australia’s participation in the AUKUS pact signifies a strategic failure due to the lack of a coherent national strategy to complement its defence posture.

Australia should critically evaluate whether support for the U.S.-dominated hegemonic model is the best path forward, suggesting the need for alternative governance frameworks that promote global well-being.

Until Australia addresses this fundamental question, its defence decisions and armament purchases risk perpetuating a flawed strategic approach.
