Recently, an editorial in the Chinese state-run newspaper the Global Times alleged that the almost 80-year-old Five Eyes alliance of Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United Kingdom and the United States is an ‘axis of white supremacy’.
We’re joined by Dr John Coyne head of the North and Australia’s Security program at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute to discuss some of the flaws in China’s strategic thinking and where that’s leading China.
John sees opportunities in countering CCP’s increasingly divisive international policies.
The Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) is an independent, non-partisan think tank that produces expert and timely advice for Australia’s strategic and defense leaders. ASPI generates new ideas for government, allowing them to make better-informed decisions for Australia’s future. ASPI is one of the most authoritative and widely quoted contributors to public discussion of strategic policy issues in Australia and a recognized and authoritative Australian voice in international discussion of strategic issues, especially in the Asia-Pacific.
ASPI aims, through its website, publications, blog, events and media activities, to be innovative, accurate and well-informed and to broaden public knowledge about the critical strategic choices our country will face over the coming years. The institute’s work helps to foster strategic expertise in Australia through dialogue, research and its contribution to public debate. ASPI strives to provide a strong focus and constructive commentary on the practical choices and issues which confront Australia’s strategic policy decisions, and this is reflected in ASPI’s core values of collegiality, originality and innovation, quality and excellence, and independence.
ASPI was established by the Australian Government in 2001 and is partially funded by the Department of Defense with other sources of revenue including sponsorship, commissioned tasks, a membership scheme, sale of publications, advertising and event registration fees.
