Australia's new treaty with Nauru emphasizes a security partnership aimed at curbing Chinese influence, mandating consultation on key sectors like telecommunications and banking.
By providing substantial financial support, Australia seeks to strengthen its influence in the Pacific, ensuring that Nauru does not become a foothold for Chinese expansion.
The agreement comes in light of recent concerns over China's increasing presence in the Pacific, particularly following a significant security pact with the Solomon Islands.
This five-year deal will not only assist Nauru economically but also strategically position Australia and its allies to counter growing Chinese interests in vital sectors.
