A rupturing of the old international order has led to an increase in armed conflict over the last decade. Proxy conflicts such as the Houthi attacks in Yemen are also on an upward trajectory. In this fast changing and uncertain geo-political landscape, what does an appropriate defence policy look like for Australia?
The government’s answer to date has been to invest in AUKUS, the defence pact between Australia the US, and the UK. Join Federal Greens Leader, David Shoebridge and Dr Richard Denniss for a timely Politics in the Pub discussion exploring the future of Australia’s defence capability and asking the question - should Australia be investing all its defence eggs in the AUKUS basket? Will AUKUS keep Australia safe or make us a target in future wars?
SPEAKERS:
Senator David Shoebridge — Leader of the Australian Greens & Senator for New South Wales
Dr Richard Denniss — co-Chief Executive Officer, The Australia Institute
