British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will meet US President Joe Biden and Australian counterpart Anthony Albanese next Monday to discuss the emerging AUKUS security pact, the UK leader’s spokesman said on Wednesday.
The meeting comes with Australia set to seal a nuclear-powered submarine deal with Britain or the United States, seen as part of the trio’s efforts to counter China’s growing assertiveness in the Pacific region.
The three leaders will reportedly convene in San Diego, California for the one-day meeting. The US has one of its largest naval bases there.
