During his first address to the National Press Club in Canberra in his current role, Mr Dutton said he did not believe China wished to occupy other countries but saw Australia as subordinate, or a “tributary state”.
He said in the abscence of “counterpressure”, the Chinese government would become the sole security and economic partner for Indo Pacific nations. Mr Dutton said China’s naval battle force had more than tripled in size over the past two decades alone to become the biggest navy in the world, with 355 ships and submarines.
“Along with peoples of the Indo-Pacific and the world, Australians have watched, and we’ve watched very closely as the Chinese government has engaged in increasingly alarming activities.”
Give it to poo bear
yea china will invade your house in the end freaking you out right dutton?
Why? It's just not true, he looks rather foolish
It’s about time the alarm 🚨 Bells 🔔 are ringing about the allowed threat from China 🇨🇳 we witnessed recently all from the LABOUR party vocal Chinese apologists how many more are hidden ? The worst is the motherland hidden disguised as so called loyal Australians
Self created invisible enemy ‘China’. Aus shldnt fight US wars. The only real threat frm China is the economic threat 2 the US. Without takng any sides, Australia shuld improve their economic relations with all. Mr Dutton policies, immigration to defence, r putting Aus backwards.
China is a threat, but you cannot fight stone with a potato.
Jesus you absolute failure, you and your company of conspirators have been selling iron ore for mitigation lol
The constipated flea is trying to roar like a lion.
It’s his actions that are becoming particularly alarming 😐
The real message here is that our defence Minister Mr Dutton has become increasingly alarming even erratic and unstable
The guy scored a cheap 35k of some dude that called him names. He should put a deposit on a sub and go fight his own battle. If China wanted Australia they’d have us by now.
His actions have been increasingly alarming for a long time
This guy always reminds me of Voldemort….
I think Dutton's actions are becoming increasingly alarming, increasingly off worldly.
He does have a point.
Well if you keep poking the bear, then yeah I'm not surprised
I totally agree. They are up to no good and Australia is one of its targets. Those who do not agree, I hope you like living in a communist country.
I Can see him on the front line with all of his mates and family leading us into the war, NOT!!
he is telling us the truth we have to know
US puppet!!!
IF China decides to go to war with Australia (and that’s a big IF since it’s only this dickhead that wants war) - China would win any war within a hour. Our defence force are a laughable joke to the rest of the world, specially China
Fear politics, election looming….any Australian should be ignoring the WAR rhetoric.
What is alarming is Peter Dutton’s fear of everything he and Australia has no control over
Shouldn't this read, 'Duttons action regarding the situation in China is becoming 'increasingly alarming''?
The world is sleep-walking on China and focusing on appeasement, just like we did with Nazi Germany before WWII.
He wants to be PM, haha! AusPol
Dutton is making the situation “increasingly alarming”. He is not only a neophyte to diplomacy, he is also an ignorant militarist who aspires to ride Nationalism to The Lodge. He has sure rendered Foreign Minister, Marise Payne, impotent to address China-Australia relations.
Australia Defence force 85k Vs China 2.2 Mln. Ludicrous Bizzarro Absolutely crazy talk
Can someone return Dutton back to his basement where he can then resume playing his imaginary war games. Where's his keeper? Who let him out?
Its an election ploy nothing more. Australians should be alarmed at the Liberal Party because the Australian governments actions are becoming increasingly alarming as they become more & more desperate. Consistently caught out in lies upon lies they must go
If the LNP is so alarmed why did they decide to go with a submarine program that will take 20 years to fulfill? PeterDutton_MP
I'll leave it to an actual news source to inform me when to order my lead bunker thanks 👍
Did you really think we would let China become dominant?
China wants Australia
Nonsense
🙄🙄🙄 Beating the drums of pre-election war.
