Australia to buy US nuclear submarines as planned, report says
British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer reminded Trump the importance of Aukus during his state visit to England last week, while King Charles stressed this in H.
In his talks in London, Albania discussed the agreement with Starmer and later expressed his confidence in the plan while talking to journalists.
“I was always confident about the progress of Aukus, and every meeting and discussions I had with people under the US administration have always been positive about AUKUS and its role,” he said.
“This is happening. It is progressing. And it is progressing because it is a good idea and progress because the United States, Britain and of course in the interests of three countries, including Australia.”
Albania British Defense Secretary John Healey spoke on the sides of the British Labor Party’s annual conference on Sunday. During his visit to Australia in July, Healey signed a AUKUS agreement with Deputy Prime Minister and Defense Minister Richard Marles and showed England’s commitment to the plan.
The Pentagon review, led by the US in accordance with the Secretary of the Elbridge Colby War, was announced in June and initially lasted 30 days.
Washington Post This month, the US administration to Marles Defense agreement continues. The Nikkei report is specific in the sale of Virginia -class submarines.
The investigation was triggered by concerns that the Pentagon industry did not build new submarines quickly enough to justify the sale of the existing ships to Australia and express their concerns about a talent gap for the US navy.
However, any delay in Virginia -class sales opens a talent gap for the royal Australian navy, while waiting for the subsequent Aukus -class ships to be delivered.
Another US concern raised by Colby would not undertake to place Australia’s Virginia -class ships in any future conflict with China.
Albanian and Marles did not commit to the public on how to deploy submarines.
Australia promised to contribute 5 billion dollars to the development of the US shipbuilding industry, and early this year he met the first payment when he met the Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
Australia also promised to spend $ 5 billion on nuclear application systems in the UK, and the first of these payments made the royal navy for Rolls-Royce, the company that forms nuclear energy systems for submarines.
