Reported at johnmenadue.com: Australia needs to shift away from its military alliance with the United States and pursue an independent and peaceful foreign policy, as the current alliance compromises its sovereignty.

The US’s actions, including withdrawal from international agreements and increasing militarisation in Australia, highlight a disconnect between the values of Australian citizens and the US government.

Opposition to the AUKUS pact and calls for a more self-reliant defence policy are gaining traction.
