Скачать или смотреть 70 years of ANZUS

Today marks the 70th anniversary of signing of the ANZUS Treaty – which for seven decades has been the foundation of Australia's unbreakable Alliance with the United States of America.

I spoke in Parliament today to mark the anniversary and outlined ANZUS is the foundation stone of Australia's national security and a key pillar for peace and stability in our Indo-Pacific region.

Our Alliance was forged on the battlefield, reinforced in peacetime and renewed by successive generations. For more than a century, we have fought side-by-side in every major conflict and faced the world’s most pressing challenges together.

As we commemorate the last 70 years, we look to the future with optimism and confidence for what we can achieve, together, in the decades to come.
