US State Department official Bonnie Jenkins says the Biden administration remains committed to the AUKUS defence alliance, including the sale of nuclear-powered submarines to Australia. Jenkins has also responded to China’s concerns about the AUKUS pact by arguing that it is aimed at ensuring the safety and security of the Indo-Pacific region. She has emphasised that Australia will not be armed with nuclear weapons via the alliance, and the nation is permitted to have nuclear-powered submarines under the nuclear nonproliferation treaty.
