U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said Friday the United States stands with countries resisting Chinese "tyranny" as he opened bilateral talks in Australia. These are aimed primarily at countering "Beijing's growing influence" in the Indo-Pacific region.

Austin and U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived late Thursday in the Australian city of Brisbane, where the annual bilateral meetings will be held Friday and Saturday. They will focus on providing a submarine fleet with U.S. nuclear technology to defense partner Australia.

The U.S., U.K. and Australia had launched the AUCUS security alliance in September 2021 to "strengthen security and military deterrence in the Indo-Pacific." The three nations recently agreed on a specific timetable for equipping Canberra with a nuclear-powered submarine fleet.

The Australian media has recently focused on a letter to U.S. President Joe Biden signed by more than 20 Republican MPs, warning that the AUKUS deal would "unacceptably weaken the U.S. fleet" without a plan to boost U.S. submarine production.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese stressed that he remains "very confident" that the U.S. will deliver the three submarines. "Basically, we have reached an agreement with the Biden administration on Australia acquiring the capability to produce nuclear-powered submarines, and we are moving swiftly down that path," Australian Defense Minister Richard Marles said. Australia understands that U.S. industry is under pressure and will participate in submarine production, Marles said. The AUKUS deal is expected to cost Australia up to 368 billion Australian dollars ($246 billion) over 30 years.

The Pacific islands are not a country's backyard, and China has no interest in competing with any country for influence or seeking a so-called geostrategic presence or sphere of influence, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning stressed at a press conference Thursday.

China has imposed a series of trade restrictions on Australian exports in recent years. The measures are widely seen as a punitive response to Australian government policies.

Albanese plans state visits to the United States and China later this year. A U.S. military confrontation with rising world power China seems inevitable in the Indo-Pacific, with the U.S. in the process of drawing Australia into the conflict against Beijing.
