Agree with the twat.

Emergency meeting of OZ pols tells me this decision was done quickly/spur of the moment and the OZ pols needed to be told to listen carefully, don't ask questions, and STFU about it in the press, or else.

Cutting out NZ and Canada is important. Figure NZ not allowing nukes in territorial waters ranks it up there with France, when Schwarzkopf ssaid, when the French backed out of an Iraq invasion, that it was like going deer hunting without an accordion. IOW, too useless at this point to help, and it would only make matters worse. Aimed directly at Ardern, seems like. So, NZ needs to get their shit together, on the military end, or they'll be undefended.

My hunch is EU will align with China, and the UK military has told Boris what life will be like with that constellation on the other side of the channel.

I don't see Bidan's boys making this decision. I think someone went upstairs and Bidan was consequentially trotted out there with some Cheyenne Mountain General's sword up his ass, scabbard still on, for now, and told what to say.

Could very well be Taiwan going hot and the boys need to jettison the limp dicks and fuck ups, EU, NATO, Canada and NZ, before the fur flies. They're out of the loop. Has to be too high a risk of comms being compromised. They've become the usual suspects.
