Good afternoon. A chorus of Aukus sceptics, including former prime ministers Paul Keating and Malcolm Turnbull, say a US review into the nuclear-powered submarine program is an "opportunity" for Australia to escape a deal that would cost hundreds of billions of dollars and leave the country ultimately less able to defend itself.
The Pentagon overnight announced it had launched a review of the Aukus agreement to make sure it is aligned with Donald Trump's "America first" agenda, throwing the defence pact with Britain and Australia into doubt. The defence minister, Richard Marles, downplayed the development, saying it was "natural" that the US would examine the project, but that he believed there was still strong support for the trilateral agreement in Washington DC. The shadow defence minister, Angus Taylor, said Anthony Albanese must seek to safeguard Aukus by meeting Trump as soon as possible.
Turnbull, whose pre-existing submarine deal with French shipbuilder Naval was dramatically torn up in favour of Aukus in 2021, said Australia should "wake up" and review the agreement as well, while Keating, a longtime critic of the program, said the review "might very well be the moment Washington saves Australia from itself".
