South China Sea: Australia to debate developing nuclear weapons amid China tensions
AUSTRALIA have been secretly discussing the development of nuclear weapons in the face of tensions in the South China Sea with Beijing, according to an explosive book from a former military strategist.
With a volatile ally in the US and a steadily increasing rivalry with China, the Australian government is reportedly debating whether to produce their own nuclear deterrent. Former prime ministerial adviser Hugh White claims that Australia is no longer protected from an attack, and suggests Canberra needs to think about their defensive capabilities. His new book How to Defend Australia claims that, without nuclear weapons, China would continue to rampage through the South China Sea to establish dominance.
