Leaders have said this would be an effort to ensure peace and stability in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur nations will update and enhance our shared ability to take on the threats of the 21st Century, just as we did in the 20th Century, together,\u201d stated Joe Biden.<\/p>\n<p>According to the group\u2019s joint statement, Aukus said the U.S. and U.K. will build on their current bilateral ties to leverage their expertise from their own submarine programs to help Australia reach nuclear sub capability as soon as possible. The decision comes over ongoing tensions with China over the South China Sea and Taiwan, though China was not alluded to specifically during the meeting.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAukus will bring together our sailors, our scientists and our industries to maintain and expand our edge in military capabilities,\u201d Biden continued. \u201cAnd critical technology such as cyber, Artificial Intelligence, quantum technologies and undersea domains.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The UK, Australia and US are natural allies, and our new partnership will become increasingly vital for defending our interests around the world and protecting our people back at home.<\/p>\n<p>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/wNEKOzAyzX\">https:\/\/t.co\/wNEKOzAyzX<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udde6\ud83c\uddfa \ud83c\uddec\ud83c\udde7 \ud83c\uddfa\ud83c\uddf8<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/AUKUS?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#AUKUS<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7aV8PEKHlU\">pic.twitter.com\/7aV8PEKHlU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 UK Prime Minister (@10DowningStreet) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/10DowningStreet\/status\/1438250040942895112?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">September 15, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The three countries are to launch an 18-month effort to work out further details.

It was about their takeover of the South China Sea, their aggressive bullying of Australia over the last few years in terms of economic coercion, their intimidation of Japan and Taiwan\u2026these are the factors, not Australia\u2019s defense policy, which is changing the balance of power in the Indo-Pacific region.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/macomb-county-mich-demanding-ariz-style-audit\/\">Macomb County, Mich.
