The recent arrival of a UK Astute submarine in Western Australia is a major signal that AUKUS continues to move forward.

[Andrew Greene @AndrewBGreene]

“This submarine maintenance period, known as SMP, sends a simple message of our water-tight commitment to AUKUS; sold and unwavering. It’s a top priority for the UK Government and sits at the heart of our vision for global stability and prosperity” https://t.co/uciSIkRzSh

Kurt Campbell, the architect of the U.S. pivot to Asia, discussed the Trump administration's pivot to the western hemisphere. Watch: https://t.co/uBHtIqFLqv

To me, one of the most important developments in "Justice Mission 2025" is the startling improvement in the propaganda. The PLA has fully embraced the era of AI. So, who is this aimed at? Taiwan, Japan, the US or the domestic audience? Probably all of the above.

Throughout my professional life, I have been honored to work with hundreds of inspiring people who answered the call to service. Always thankful for the sacrifices they have made; not just today, but every day.

Happy 250th birthday to the United States Marine Corps! 🎂

@USMC

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

Full steam ahead! 🇦🇺 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 💪

[Rep. Joe Courtney @RepJoeCourtney]

Today, we christened the USS UTAH (SSN 801) — the 28th Virginia-class submarine — right off the heels of the clear message this week that AUKUS is full steam ahead.

There are now 18 Navy submarines in the construction pipeline. The demand signal has never been higher, and eastern CT’s world-class shipbuilders are rising to deliver results.

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

Glad to see leaders from the Australian Submarine Agency engaging with the local communities surrounding areas where nuclear-powered submarines will operate. Regular engagement and transparency will be crucial to maintaining long-term support. https://t.co/d3rMbLWVTf

[Charles Edel @CharlesEdel]

Great talking to congressional staffers alongside @KathrynPaik & @AbeDenmark about our two new @CSIS @AustraliaChair reports on #AUKUS and 🇺🇸 engagement in the Pacific.

Lots of opportunities for congressional oversight, guidance, and leadership on these issues.

Glad to see @RichardMarlesMP and @AmboRudd meeting with key U.S. leaders.

[Former Ambassador Kevin Rudd AC @AmboRudd]

Friends, partners and allies for over a century.

Great to join Deputy PM @RichardMarlesMP, @VP JD Vance and Secretary of Defense @PeteHegseth and later White House Deputy Chief of Staff @StephenM for a conversation about the strong and continuing US-Australia relationship.

[Charles Edel @CharlesEdel]

The initial conception of #AUKUS is complete; the real challenge now is execution. @AbeDenmark & I discuss the key questions that need to be addressed to ensure its success.

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

While these are sizable challenges, none of them are insurmountable. But overcoming them can only happen if the scale is understood and addressed with urgency, creativity, and a willingness to acknowledge what has worked and what has not—with a ruthless focus on delivery.

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

Delighted to release a @CSIS report on #AUKUS, which I co-authored with @AustraliaChair. Some of our key findings:

https://t.co/3gVKVuLN8K

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

We identify five questions that should drive a review of AUKUS:
1⃣ The numbers gap
2⃣ Australian sovereign concerns and allied planning
3⃣ Submarine industrial base investments
4⃣ Giving Pillar II tangible form and real capabilities
5⃣ Timeline, oversight, and shaping discourse.

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

I am thrilled to welcome @sophgaston to @TheAsiaGroup as a Senior Advisor! She will be providing critical insights on AUKUS and dynamics between the UK, Europe, and the Indo-Pacific. https://t.co/UA8rnNtMJW

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

It's great to see the UK sending a robust Naval capability to the Indo-Pacific, working closely with another critical American ally! This demonstrates the resilience of these relationships, and sends a strong deterrence message to our potential adversaries.

[Nicholas Drummond @nicholadrummond]

HMS Prince of Wales in Darwin. This is a deeply impressive picture. Full complement of F-35Bs plus Merlin ASW helicopters. It has taken a long time, but we got there.

[Abraham M. Denmark @AbeDenmark]

My home town! Great to see Fort Collins get the recognition it deserves.

[Governor Jared Polis @GovofCO]

I’m happy to see Fort Collins recognized as the most peaceful place to live in the U.S.! But honestly, I’m not surprised. Colorado is all about stunning landscapes and a wonderful quality of life. Come discover your own slice of serenity here!
