OPINION: In 2009, when at Georgetown in Washington, D.C., I attended a guest lecture about China’s nascent foothold in Antarctica, with images of its first ramshackle base. A bunch of badly attired scientists huddled outside their shack. Compared to our well-established Scott Base, it looked like amateur hour. Thirteen years on, China has five bases on the ice.

The war in Ukraine has several features with which we in Australia are already familiar. The Ukrainian state has dominated the information war in our news cycles and social media. We have seen images of smashed Russian truck convoys, Ukrainian farmers towing off Russian armoured vehicles and air defence systems, and Russian tanks being destroyed in great numbers by Ukrainian artillery, armed drones and infantry wielding lethal, mobile anti-tank guided-missile systems such as the Javelin and NLAW (next-generation light anti-tank weapon).
