Quick Glance: US, Britain, Australia Consider Expanding AUKUS to Deter China

The U.S., Britain, and Australia are initiating talks to expand their AUKUS security pact, with a focus on involving Japan as a deterrent against China, according to the Financial Times.

The defense ministers will discuss 'Pillar Two' of the pact, aiming to jointly develop quantum computing, undersea, hypersonic, artificial intelligence, and cyber technology.

The U.S. is advocating for Japan's inclusion in the second pillar while ruling out expansion of the first pillar, which involves supplying nuclear-powered submarines to Australia.

Formed in 2021, the AUKUS pact aims to counter China's influence in the Indo-Pacific region. The potential addition of Japan to Pillar Two is expected to be announced soon.
