Australia, Britain and the United States have informed the U.N. atomic watchdog of their new security partnership that will help Australia acquire nuclear submarines, and both sides plan to 'engage' over the coming months, the watchdog said on Thursday.

The International Atomic Energy Agency is tasked with keeping track of all nuclear material in countries that, like Australia, have ratified the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty so as to make sure none of it is being siphoned off for use in a nuclear bomb - an area of IAEA work known as safeguards. For a party to the NPT other than the so-called P5 to have nuclear submarines poses a challenge because they are military vessels that are designed to be undetectable and would often be beyond the reach of IAEA inspectors. It is, however, possible in principle to temporarily exclude submarine reactor fuel from IAEA safeguards if a prior agreement is reached with the body.

Climate change will be 10x worse than covid in how are lives will be effected. Best strategic decision for Southeast Asia to counter China. It's necessary. China seriously stressing our allies. They built islands in international waters and militarized them. The Philippines needs a new Fkn leader tho.
