Turnbull warns AUKUS deal may deliver no submarines
Former Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull has warned at a public inquiry that the AUKUS deal may fail to deliver nuclear-powered submarines to Australia, citing insufficient American production capacity and problems with British shipbuilding. Turnbull and a retired Army Chief criticised parliamentarians for refusing to answer serious questions about the defence agreement. The government also faced criticism for allowing American troops to deploy at a Perth military base.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
