Sure, and in what capacity does it make sense that China would WANT USA putting a bunch of nuclear weapons close to where they operate in the south pacific? Answer: it does not make sense, China would not want our nukes closer to them. Therefore China would not make Australia let us put them there. So the fact they did, suggests that we, not China are the masters of what Australia does. If you want to suggest otherwise you would have to make some very unlikely or ridiculous assumptions

Are you really this dumb or are you just trolling me?
