Signed in 1951, the Australia, New Zealand, United States Security Treaty is a non-binding agreement between Australia and New Zealand and, separately, Australia and the United States, to co-operate in military matters in the Pacific Ocean region. In this article for the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, Patrick Walters explores the past, present and future of the alliance, finding that ANZUS today encompasses much more than defence and intelligence cooperation. Newer areas of collaboration include work on cybersecurity, space, supply chains, industrial production, rare earths, emerging areas in science and technology like quantum computing and climate change, and wider engagement with countries and institutions beyond the treaty’s initial scope or intention. The author explores the challenges that ANZUS now faces and how it might be shaped to address future events.
