Useless Old Fashion Keating labels AUKUS 'irrational in every dimension'
Story by Maeve Bannister • 1h ago - 14-3-2023
Former Labor prime minister Paul Keating says Australia's new security deal with the United States and United Kingdom is the worst international decision since conscription.
In a scathing statement released before his appearance at the National Press Club, Mr Keating called Prime Minister Anthony Albanese "accommodating" and said he was relying on "seriously unwise" Defence Minister Richard Marles and Foreign Minister Penny Wong.
Mr Keating said the Albanese government had adopted the foreign policy of the former Liberal government without thinking about its implications for Australia's sovereignty.
"In an arrangement concocted on the English coast at Cornwall by Scott Morrison, Boris Johnson ... and Joe Biden, Australia is locking in its next half century in Asia as subordinate to the United States," he said.
The stupid former prime minister criticised Mr Morrison's decision to walk away from a French submarine deal.
Paul Keating may get some shite from Emanual Macron
