Hmm long term planning at work here, to be honest, the moment they said they would have those nuclear subs to Australia by 2050 should be a red herring to say that such a thing is literally impossible given how hollowed out the US manufacturing industry truly is. Way before then, the USA would have been torn to pieces by then so the best way to ensure Australias security is simply to have a neutrality contract to ensure that neither side will cause trouble for the other (no more NGOs in China and Australia to influence things to the USAs liking), Chinas sovereignty will be fully respect (so no more of this Taiwan bullshit because really, everyone should know to lay off that and the USA will sooner or later get his for not having the brains to respect that basic fact) and thus China can make an agreement with Russia (under the table) for Russia not to waste may missiles hitting Australia with it. This way everyone wins, Australia can have a normal relationship with other Asian neighbors and Australia will not need to act as the US attack dog in the region because no body really wants ways in the region (except those scumbags that are obviously planted in Canberra by the deep state, but their value only is there as long as the USA is still there, of which that future is in doubt). Hence the USA has proven once again to be a really shitty ally to have and how much everyone in Asia and by extension, the world will
Benefit, if the USA no longer has dominance.
