With the announcement recently that Australia will procure 8 nuclear-powered submarines and forming a new trilateral security group with the UK, and US called AUKUS. How has AUKUS changed the playing field in the geopolitical arena?
New Zealand was left out of the discussions and people pointing out that it is we are friends not Allies with the US, and we can no longer be trusted with security matters.

Afghanistan's new Taliban rulers set up a ministry for the “propagation of virtue and the prevention of vice" in the building that once housed the Women's Affairs Ministry, escorting out World Bank staffers on Saturday as part of the forced move.
It was the latest troubling sign that the Taliban are restricting women's rights as they settle into government, just a month since they overran the capital of Kabul. During their previous rule of Afghanistan in the 1990s, the Taliban had denied girls and women the right to education and barred them from public life.

Canberra announced on Thursday it would scrap its 2016 deal with France's Naval Group to build a fleet of conventional submarines and instead build at least eight nuclear-powered ones with US and UK technology after striking a trilateral security partnership.
