48060 (2024). Hon David Parker to the Minister of Foreign Affairs: If AUKUS Pillar Two “is not a defence or military arrangement”, as claimed in his TVNZ interview on 1 August 2024, what is it?

Rt Hon Winston Peters: AUKUS is a trilateral security partnership between Australia, the US, and UK. Pillar II involves cooperation on advanced, non-nuclear military technologies.
