Sharing Nuclear Secrets and the Future of AUKUS

About the Event

Join us for an insightful discussion with Anthony Eames as we discuss his recent book, Sharing Nuclear Secrets, which examines the Anglo-American nuclear alliance—the oldest and most complex nuclear partnership in the world. Eames's work reveals valuable lessons learned from this enduring relationship, particularly regarding the delicate balance of trust and ambiguity that has shaped its evolution over eight decades.

In his conversation, we will examine the parallels between historical insights from the Anglo-American alliance and the emerging dynamics of AUKUS, the trilateral security partnership between Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. With recent US election results prompting shifts in political leadership, we will discuss how these changes may impact nuclear cooperation and regional security in the Indo-Pacific. We will explore how lessons from the past can inform AUKUS’s approach to managing challenges from China and enhancing deterrence strategies, emphasizing the importance of maintaining trust and strategic clarity in these high-stakes partnerships. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain critical insights into the future of AUKUS and its implications for global security.
