Les Etats-Unis, le Royaume-Uni et l'Australie s'engagent dans un pacte de sécurité
Les Etats-Unis, le Royaume-Uni et l'Australie annoncent la création d'AUKUS (Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States), une alliance dans le domaine de la défense. Londres et Washington aideront l'Australie à s'équiper de sous-marins à propulsion nucléaire. L'Australie a annulé un contrat conclu il y a six ans avec la France pour l'achat de 12 sous-marins à propulsion diesel-électrique sur la base du modèle Barracuda de la Marine française. Le ministre de l'Europe et des Affaires étrangères, Jean-Yves Le Drian, et la ministre des Armées, Florence Parly, ont indiqué « prendre acte » de cette décision « regrettable » et « contraire à la lettre et à l'esprit de la coopération » entre la France et l'Australie, « au moment où nous faisons face à des défis sans précédent dans la région Indopacifique ».
