Historian says we should be ‘more concerned’ about military build up in the Indo-Pacific | THE ISSUE
Australia’s Foreign Minister Penny Wong has raised concerns with China over its nuclear-capable missile test in the South Pacific. But is that enough?
Lachlan Strahan tells The Issue if these types of incidents increase in frequency, we should become ‘more concerned’.
The historian and diplomat with 30 years’ experience also questions whether AUKUS will work out, he says the Albanese Government is spending too much cash on rugby league diplomacy, and says the PM may be getting a little too close to Indian PM Modi.
Strahan has written a book called ‘The Curious Diplomat’ and today on The Issue he shares jaw dropping stories, including going into North Korea on a mission and being yelled at by politicians.
He also shares his thoughts on Pauline Hanson, and what a One Nation Government would mean for international relations.
