Strengthening the Australia-UK-US Alliance
With wars in Europe and the Middle East — coupled with international security challenges from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea’s unholy alliance — it's clear our adversaries are becoming more aggressive. They are working together to undermine Western values and change the global balance of power.
As the world burns, America is being tested.
Ensuring unity with our closest allies abroad and demonstrating strength — not weakness — is more important now than ever. That's why this week, I held a hearing in the House Foreign Affairs Committee on the importance of our close alliance with the United Kingdom and Australia.
With AUKUS — the Australia, United Kingdom, and U.S. alliance — we have an opportunity to build on American innovation and partner with our closest allies to deter and defend against our greatest adversaries.
