The Australia, New Zealand and United States Security Treaty, or ANZUS Treaty, was an agreement signed in 1951 to protect the security of the Pacific. Although the agreement has not been formally abrogated, the United States and New Zealand no longer maintain the security relationship between their countries.
ANZUS was overshadowed in late 2021 by AUKUS,
a trilateral security pact between Australia, the United Kingdom, and
the United States. It involves cooperation in nuclear submarines that
New Zealand did not support. Australia and New Zealand, "are poles apart
in terms of the way they see the world....I think this alliance
underlines that they’re going in very different directions,” said
Geoffrey Miller, an international analyst at the Democracy Project in
New Zealand.
