The British "Daily Mail" reported on the 22nd that, as part of the AUKUS, the British and Australian trilateral security partnership (AUKUS), the British plans to send a nuclear submarine fleet to Port, Australia. warn". However, the report also said that considering that China has the "largest navy" in the world, the role of deployment is questionable.
"Daily Mail": Britain will send nuclear submarines to Australia to issue "warnings" to China
It is reported that Tony Radakin, commander -in -chief of the British Armed Forces and General Navy, is expected to make a decision at the Naval Conference in Sydney next week that this operation will allow the British submarine to deploy until 2040. "Operation within the scope of China". The operation is part of the AUKUS mechanism in the United States and Australia. The Australian submarine boatman will be included in the British submarine to improve the operational skills of Australian personnel on nuclear submarines.
The British military refused to disclose the number of nuclear submarines deployed to Australia, and the British Department of Defense also refused to comment on the incident.
The report claims that sending nuclear submarines to patrolling the South China Sea will be "the strongest measures for Britain for China so far." But on the other hand, given that China has the "largest navy in the world", some people question the role of the British army, because in terms of quantity and firepower, the British submarine lags behind China.

In mid -September last year, the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia announced the establishment of a three -sided security partnership (Aukus), the most notable cooperative project to help Australia build nuclear submarines in Britain and the United States. It is precisely because of this agreement that France lost a conventional power submarine contract with Australia a few years ago with Australia, which caused diplomatic disputes between France and the Three Kingdoms.
Since the beginning of this year, the United States, Britain, and Australia have accelerated military cooperation with the excuse of Russia and Ukraine's conflict and the so -called "Chinese threats". The leaders of the Three Kingdoms issued a statement in April saying that he would develop hypersonic weapons under the AUKUS framework.
Australia's Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Richard Marles rendered in June that the growth of China's military expenditure "may cause expansion competition" and bring "uneasiness" to the surrounding areas.
A spokesman for the Embassy in Britain said on April 7 that the U.S. -British and Australian excuses in the Ukraine crisis declared that the United States and Britain would provide Australia with nuclear -powered submarines and the Three Kingdoms to cooperate with advanced military technologies such as hypersonic weapons, which further exposed the deep -rooted Cold War thinking in the United States and Britain. And the sinister intention of provoking the group's confrontation and manufacturing conflict, and further shows that this small group will seriously impact the international nuclear non -diffusion system, exacerbate the arms race, and harm the peace and stability of the Asia -Pacific region. China has resolutely opposed it. All Asia -Pacific countries should be highly vigilant.
The spokesman emphasized that China's determination to defend the interests of national sovereignty security is unswerving. We advise the United States and Britain and Australia to respect the facts, recognize the general trend, abandon the Cold War thinking, and stop going further and further on the wrong road to destroying the peace, stability, and cooperation in the region.
