One of the purpose is to deal with China's increasing influence.The agreement sets two pillars. The first pillar is to provide Australia with a nuclear -driven attack submarine to assist it to build a nuclear -motion submarine fleet.

A joint statement on Monday, the United States and Britain, Australia and Australia (April 8th) said that Aukus will negotiate with potential partners this year with the second pillar plan. Considering the advantages of Japan and its close bilateral defense partnership with the Three Kingdoms, the Three KingdomsConsider cooperating with Japan.

U.S. President Biden and Japanese Prime Minister Kishita Nakano will hold a summit on Washington on Wednesday (10th), which is expected to explore the possibility of Japan's participation in AUKUS to develop "advanced capabilities".However, officials and experts point out that there are still resistance to cooperation, because Japan still needs to strengthen network defense and formulate stricter regulations in protecting confidentiality.

Japan said in February this year that it is preparing to legislate to ensure economic security, listed more information as confidential, and requires those company employees who have the right to contact these information to pass the review.It also needs to strengthen network security, including establishing a 20,000 -person online security forces, and legislation to enable this unit to actively carry out online security defense to eliminate potential network attacks.

Some analysts pointed out that due to the strict restrictions on technology sharing in the United States, he hesitant to share technology with other countries, so that AUKUS will face obstacles, so it is too early to discuss Japan's addition.

Greenwalt, a senior researcher at the Washington Think Tank Institute of Washington Think Tank, who had served as a high school in the Pentagon, said: "If we are so important in AUKUS, they cannot integrate with Britain and Australia, then it is impossible to cooperate with Japan because Japan's because of Japan's, because Japan’s, because Japan’sSecurity institutions are still in a peaceful period and immature.

In fact, the Australian Britain and the United States have not perceived the introduction of new members. Australian Prime Minister Albanis's words on Tuesday revealed the end of it.He praised Japan as a close partner at the Canberra press conference, but it shows that Aukus does not plan to formally invite Japan to join as the fourth member, but will cooperate according to individual specific projects.

"The current suggestion is to study the second pillar and individual projects of AUKUS ... in this regard, Japan is a natural option ... ... Aukus members are not in the proposal."

A diplomatic source revealed that Australia is worried that once more countries are introduced, the situation will become more complicated, and the United States and Britain's attention will be scattered in the arduous project of assisting Australia's procurement nuclear -powered submarines.
