AUKUS?

Is there no better branding then...AUKUS?




I wonder how the nuclear submarine stuff will affect ANZUS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ANZUS

"New Zealand was suspended from ANZUS in 1986 as it initiated a nuclear-free zone in its territorial waters; in late 2012 New Zealand lifted a ban on visits by United States warships leading to a thawing in tensions. New Zealand maintains a nuclear-free zone as part of its foreign policy and is partially suspended from ANZUS, as the United States maintains an ambiguous policy whether or not the warships carry nuclear weapons and operates numerous nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and submarines; however New Zealand resumed key areas of the ANZUS treaty in 2007."


Guess no nuke subs making port of call across the Tasman sea.


New Zealand is anti-nuke? You'd think they would be pro-nuke!

Sometimes a small country needs a big equalizer. For example...North Korea.


We should rebrand it USUKA


Maybe we can get Malaysia involved, then we can call it MABUS.
