The country's defense minister said that the nation is willing to think about joining the second pillar of the AUKUS defense agreement.
that it is in talks to join the non-nuclear pillar of the AUKUS alliance, founded by Australia, the UK, and the US.
New Zealand has not been offered the chance to join pillar one, which covers Australia's receipt of nuclear-powered submarines, due to its anti-nuclear position. Little said that AUKUS membership could not compromise the country's legal obligations and moral commitment to being nuclear-free.of the three-part deal covers sharing advanced military technologies, including quantum computing and artificial intelligence.
Last week, Foreign Minister Nanaia Mahuta met with top Chinese diplomats and told them about these worries. China is very against AUKUS and has said it has "serious concern and firm opposition" to the military partnership between Australia, the UK, and the US. It is unclear whether China holds the same concerns about pillar two of the AUKUS deal.
However, he walked back his comments on Tuesday, saying that he was “certainly not” trying to criticize the deal.
