Australia holds a special place in global geopolitics. Despite the size of the country, it has never actively participated in shaping global political processes, acting as an appendage of the United Kingdom and then the United States. Now, in the context of the changing global balance of power and the growing confrontation between the United States and China, Australia is becoming a distant backyard of Washington, which will be used by the Pentagon as a strategic stronghold in the Pacific region.
