Peter Dutton flags Australia sending weapons to Taiwan, acquiring nuclear submarines before 2040
Defence Minister Peter Dutton has indicated Australia may send weapons to Taiwan in response to any future Chinese military aggression, drawing a direct comparison to support currently being sent to Ukraine in its fight against Russia.
Key points:
Mr Dutton said China was acquiring nuclear weapons and amassing “huge” forces
Labor said it was wrong for the Defence Minister to answer hypotheticals about military action
Mr Dutton said Australia could acquire nuclear submarines earlier than 2040
Mr Dutton also revealed Australia might acquire nuclear submarines earlier than the expected 2040 timeline, with details on design and construction to be announced “within a couple of months” and possibly before a federal election.
When directly asked about the prospect of arming Taiwan on Insiders, Mr Dutton said: “I think we do whatever we can to deter China from acts of aggression in our region.”
“Let’s be very clear. We want peace to prevail in our region, but you don’t have that peace if you are arguing from a position of weakness,” Mr Dutton said.
Prepare for the Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ!
Please repent, carry your cross daily and accept the free gift of Jesus Christ’s Death on the Cross for payment for your sins.
