Defence Minister Richard Marles and AUKUS architect Scott Morrison have insisted they are confident the United States will keep supporting the $368 billion submarine deal despite the Trump administration\u2019s decision to review the security pact to ensure it puts \u201cAmerica first\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Very brave for Albo to sanction an American ally on the eve of AUKUS review.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Australia is caught between acting as an independent, sovereign nation and outsourcing defence all the way with USA\/UK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

New damning statement by Paul Keating on #AUKUS<\/a> in response to US review. Says it was a deal \u201cscribbled on the back of an envelope\u201d by a \u201cconfused\u201d Joe Biden and \u201cblowhard\u201d Boris Johnson with Scott Morrison going blindly along. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former PM says the US review provides the opportunity to save Australia \u201cfrom the most poorly conceived defence procurement program ever adopted by an Australian government.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n
