Peter Dutton labels China ‘immature’ over AUKUS criticism

Mr Dutton revealed Australia could see a greater presence of US troops in the country as part of the alliance.

He did not shy away from criticising how the Indo-Pacific region had been handled, particularly on the focus of maintaining rules-based order. Mr Dutton and Secretary of State Antony Blinken did not hesitate to talk about China directly and why the AUKUS alliance was so significant. Speaking exclusively to Sky News Australia, Mr Dutton was clear about the threat China poses in the region and responded to criticism from Chinese newspaper The Global Times.

“I think some of the propaganda we’ve seen from a number of spokespersons or the media outlets who speak on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party, frankly, I think they make the case for us,” he said.

😂 China calling us “irresponsible” everything they say to us is veiled threat (or not so veiled)

Hallmark of the Morrison government Full marks in quest for perfect failure. Diplomatic fallout with China France. What a wreckage on top of sexism debacle, vaccine , covid clumsiness ,1 trillion debt , unashamely sexism, consistently failed wars since Vietnam.

Always using China as a distraction. It's step one in the LNP handbook

I’m not really sure China gets to tell other countries how to run their defence forces. When the most obvious aggressor in the region is, you know, China.

Peter Dutton is a great Defence Minister…

After nearly 8 years of this appalling government, it's not difficult to tell who's more dangerous and detrimental to the people of Australia ...

‘I kept repeating myself to persuade them’: US ‘ignored’ COVID-19 warningA Chinese pro-democracy activist said he attempted to warn the US about the emergence of COVID-19 when he first heard of a mysterious new virus in October 2019, an explosive documentary airing exclusively on Sky News Australia has uncovered. If this is true, then it confirms my suspicions- it is biological terrorism. So Trump, who was still in power at the time, did nothing? Gosh, that doesn't sound like him! /s Everyone knows that the Covid19 come from Fort Detrick.
