Firstpost  

Pro-China experts called AUKUS deal an ’expensive mistake’ and a ’time bomb for peace’ in the region Beijing: The AUKUS nuclear submarine deal involving Australia, US and UK has unnerved China. The Chinese government claimed the US and UK are “clearly violating the object and purpose of the NPT” by transferring tons of weapons-grade enriched uranium to a non-nuclear-weapon Australia. UK and US violating object of NPT Chinese Mission to the United Nations said the nuclear submarine cooperation plan by AUKUS “is a blatant act that constitutes serious nuclear proliferation risks, undermines international non-proliferation system, fuels arms races, and hurts peace and stability in the region.” The nuclear submarine cooperation plan released today by #AUKUS is a blatant act that constitutes serious nuclear proliferation risks, undermines international non-proliferation system, fuels arms races, and hurts peace and stability in the region. — Chinese Mission to UN March 13, 2023 China further said: “The irony of AUKUS is that two nuclear weapons states who claim to uphold the highest nuclear non-proliferation standard are transferring tons of weapons-grade enriched uranium to a non-nuclear-weapon state, clearly violating the object and purpose of the NPT.” The China government urged the US, the UK and Australia to honor their obligations as members of the NPT.
