AUKUS\u00a0is a\u00a0trilateral security partnership\u00a0between the United States of America, Australia, United Kingdom\u00a0in the\u00a0Indo-Pacific region.\u00a0It\u00a0may\u00a0supersede\u00a0existing partnerships in the region\u00a0as:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. May\u00a0undermine\u00a0the more\u00a0well-rounded\/balanced objectives of QUAD.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. May\u00a0weaken the five eyes alliance group,\u00a0(New-Zealand has shown displeasure\u00a0over the formation of\u00a0AUKUS)<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. May\u00a0weaken the ASEAN centrality\u00a0in the region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. USA promoting\u00a0security partnership\u00a0with its\u00a0Anglo-Saxon allies\u00a0may leave\u00a0India and others\u00a0out from the regional security architecture.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    The\u00a0strength of AUKUS as a security partnership\u00a0between the UK, the USA and Australia\u00a0can be seen as:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Will greatly enhance, by\u00a0providing nuclear submarines\/hypersonic missiles to Australia, the capabilities of its members to\u00a0project power in Indo-Pacific.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    2. Will give its members a credible\u00a0deterrence powers towards China\u00a0by deepening\u00a0military capabilities.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    3. Enhance\u00a0patrolling and surveillance power of its members in\u00a0Indo-Pacific;\u00a0Restore\u00a0the sanctity of norms and rules-based order\u00a0in the region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    4. Enhance the capabilities of the like-minded countries, in the emerging domain of\u00a0Artificial Intelligence, quantum technologies, cyber security\u00a0etc.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      However, AUKUS have raised\u00a0certain concerns\u00a0which could be\u00a0counter-productive\u00a0for India such as:<\/span><\/b>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      1. May\u00a0instigate\u00a0a nuclear\/conventional arms race\u00a0in the region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      2. China and Russia\u00a0may\u00a0react by supplying sensitive\u00a0defense\u00a0technologies\u00a0to other states.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      3. AUKUS which is perceived\u00a0as an anti-China grouping\u00a0by China may lead to\u00a0erosion of regional stability\u00a0in the Indo-Pacific region.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      4. Manner in which AUKUS was formulated\u00a0ignoring France\u00a0may increase\u00a0trust deficit\u00a0between the\u00a0like-minded democratic countries\u00a0on other\u00a0matters of global importance.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      5. AUKUS with its\u00a0exclusionary vision\u00a0may run\u00a0contrary to India\u2019s vision of an inclusive Indo-Pacific.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Though AUKUS<\/strong>, offers the advantage of\u00a0balance of power, strategic autonomy and a check on Chinese aggression, it also has significant challenges as it has been termed as\u00a0Indo-Pacific NATO.\u00a0Hence, to\u00a0progress with consultations and collaborations\u00a0will be a prudent way forward.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
