Over the past month, a flotilla of Chinese military ships came close to Australian shores unannounced. They conducted live-fire drills off the coast of Eden, New South Wales – disrupting dozens of flights out of Sydney airport. The Chinese ships have arrived at a time when Australia’s ability to rely on the United States for defence is questionable, and their presence has sparked concerns that we’re unable to handle our own security in the event of an attack. Today, Director of the Lowy Institute’s International Security Program, Sam Roggeveen, on why the Chinese military circled Australia – and what we should do about it.

It's time to return to the news, and Stephen Dziedzic of the ABC returns to discuss three big stories that he's been reporting on in recent weeks. First, what is the impact of Donald Trump on the foreign policy community in Australia? How is the government managing the tariffs and numerous other controversies, and will this become an election issue? Is there ballast developing around a “plan B”? Second, a group of People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) warships circumnavigated Australia in February, causing quite a stir. And third, New Zealand and Cook Islands have been a tense relationship in recent months with the latter's relationship with Beijing central to the dispute. Australia in the World is written, hosted, and produced by Darren Lim, with research and editing this episode by Corbin Duncan and theme music composed by Rory Stenning.

The fleet of the future must be designed, procured, and supported with a process that harmonizes three distinct product streams—software, systems, and structures. Former CNO John Richardson discusses his recent Proceedings article with Bill Hamblet.
A military expert says China's sent a clear message with its war ships as they sail away from Australia and New Zealand. Three highly powered navy vessels entered Australia's exclusive economic zone in the Tasman Sea last week, where they performed live firing exercises. The New Zealand Defence Force is no longer monitoring the warships as they sail west away from Australia. Lowy Institute Senior Fellow Mick Ryan told Mike Hosking it's a display of power from China, showing they can disrupt trade whenever they want. He says it's also a test of Australia's relationship with the US, considering what's happening with Europe. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Winston Peters has made it clear to China that we aren't happy with its handling of the warships the Tasman Sea. The Foreign Minister's been meeting with his Chinese counterpart Wang Yi in Beijing. Peters says the pair talked about China's new deal with the Cook Islands and the Chinese Navy vessels, which have now entered Australia's exclusive economic zone. Geopolitical analyst Geoffrey Miller told Mike Hosking Peters doesn't appear to have held back. He says it appears to have been a fairly tough conversation, and a robust exchange of views, with Peters saying it was a "failure" that China didn't give more notice to New Zealand. Miller says China probably didn't want things to play out as they have, and reports from Chinese state media suggest it's keen for more "dialogue" in the future.

The presence of Chinese warships in the Tasman Sea could indicate New Zealand needs to strengthen relations with China.

Three Chinese warships have been docked off the coast of Sydney since last week, and they have since been seen carrying out a live weapons drill. Commercial flights had to be diverted as a result of the exercise, with pilots being told to avoid the area. Should New Zealand be worried? Defence Minister Judith Collins talk to Mike Hosking about China's presence in the Pacific. LISTEN ABOVE. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
I am sad to report that Winston Peters is wrong. His thinking that the Pacific favours friendship has been proven naive. As I have always said, chequebooks win and we don't have a chequebook and even his goodwill gesture in 2017, when he lined up along side Labour and handed out a billion dollars, has proven woefully short. The Chinese have shown over the weekend that the world is changing, and in a dramatic way, and we haven't even mentioned the word Trump yet. The Cooks deal is about mining the seabed. It's about things at great depth in the ocean that are worth a fortune. In the meantime the Chinese navy has arrived locally and we are busy diverting planes while having no idea why they have done what they have done. The best reasoning I have seen so far is from Mick Ryan, who appears on this show periodically. He is ex-military and a great thinker and is deeply worried. If he is, we all should be. His theory is the Chinese are reminding Australia that you might want to stay local instead of wandering off and doing your exercises in places like, oh, I don't know, Taiwan? If you don't know what's coming and when, staying local makes sense. They are sending a message. Is it legal? Yes. It's international waters so it's international law and nothing has been broken, apart from the fact they are rude by not letting anyone know. But then that's the point. There is also a sense that some sort of picking of sides is coming i.e AUKUS or no AUKUS. We might like to think about that as well. We might also like to look at our defence forces and wonder, yet again, if we have tried our luck just a little too long and what's left of what we have, might need a bit more dough spent on it. But, as for the Pacific, Mark Brown will say nice things. But money talks and it has talked. The Pacific generally are being, or have been, bought off by Chinese money, whether its security like the Solomons or mining like the Cooks. Friendship doesn't solve any of it. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Well, we may have problems getting Chinese tourists back to New Zealand, but the Chinese military seem interested in the region, conducting naval training practices about 130 to 150 nautical miles off the coast of Sydney. So far, China has complied with international law and the UN Convention on the law on the sea. There is no indication they won't continue to do so. This is not an overly aggressive move, but it should give the Government pause for thought - and focus thinking on the state of our navy. There are some oddities about this mission in the Tasman Sea - oddities that shouldn't be ignored. The first is the combination of ships sent our way. Speaking to media yesterday, Prime Minister Luxon said the Chinese warships in the Tasman have different capabilities from what we've seen before. The other oddity is that neither Australia or New Zealand received notice from China that it would be heading our way. No one knows their intentions - where they're going or why. Nor was there formal warning of what is thought to have been a live fire exercise, causing several commercial airlines to re-rout or change their flight paths. It was commercial airline staff who picked up unexpected radio messages from the Chinese navy, warning them to divert from an area between New Zealand and Australia where military drills were being carried out. Given the Tasman is basically a busy harbour bridge for planes flying between Australia and New Zealand, I'd quite like that information to be provided ahead of time - please. The Australian Minister for Defence, Richard Marles, said Australia would normally give 12- 24 hours' notice of a live firing event. So what's going on? It's quite possible China is responding to the Australian navy conducting ‘freedom of navigation' exercises off the Chinese coast. A little tit-for-tat - and a reminder of China's capabilities. With no one picking up the phone to offer an explanation, perhaps China sees this as an opportunity to see what kind of political and military response this unprecedented move generates from Australia and New Zealand. New Zealand has sent the HSS Te Kaha and a P-8 Poseidon aircraft to monitor the Chinese movements - take that China! Politically, explanations are being demanded - politely at this stage. Defence Minister Judith Collins has called the Chinese actions unusual, but didn't go so far to call it a show of force by China. But with China's continuing encroachment into the Pacific, and a formalised security deal with the Solomon Islands now in play, surely their intentions is to spend more time in the Tasman Sea. Without a robust response - what's stopping them? Defence Minister Judith Collins says the presence of three Chinese naval ships off Australia is a wake-up call for New Zealanders. It sure is. We have depleted our defence services, we're an isolated country that can't protect ourselves on our own, and we're very vulnerable to supply chains being disrupted. Wake-up call received loud and clear. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
