AUKUS Investigated 03: The China question

Global Roaming with Geraldine Doogue and Hamish Macdonald

In this episode Hamish and Geraldine examine the strategic thinking behind AUKUS. If China has undertaken the most rapid military expansion of any country since WWII, how does the AUKUS pact factor into Beijing's thinking? And does a plan that ties us more closely to the United States make us more or less safe?
