The United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia are moving forward with the AUKUS security agreement, leaders announced this week after the Trump administration completed its review of the deal.

AUKUS is a trilateral security agreement launched in 2021 designed to promote security and stability in the Indo-Pacific region through the rotational basing of nuclear-powered attack submarines in Australia and the longer-term effort of aiding Australia in acquiring its own nuclear-powered attack submarine fleet.
