- @TurnbullMalcolm, ancien Premier ministre d'Australie lors d'un échange avec le think tank @ChathamHouse.

Ce programme "est un transfert massif de richesses du gouvernement australien vers les États-Unis et le Royaume-Uni."

Instead of spending $5 billion to ensure our current submarines last into the 2040s, the government will spend $11 billion 'sustaining' them — increasing the risk of a big gap in submarine capability.
