Rt Hon Christopher Luxon

No, no, no. There's two things going on. Look, first and foremost, you know, we make our own decisions around defence spending. I'm really proud of what we've done. You know, we've got the biggest commitment to defence spending going forward of any previous government. We've had under investment in our defence assets for probably the last 30 years. We've got a doubling of defence spending. We've got a 15-year plan. We know we need new resources, equipment, support. We need to hire, I think, another 2,000 plus uh personnel. Uh, you know, that takes time as we work our way through getting, you know, ships built and aircraft ordered and and people recruited. But you know, we should be really proud of the fact we're doing that. And we have to do that because we've moved from a very benign part of the world where you know there hasn't been much uh threats or risks to to our futures to a more challenged part of the world now. And so it's important when you belong to different alliances that you actually step up and contribute. You don't just belong to the alliances and get the membership. You've actually got to show up and bring something to the party. So I think we've done a very good job and a very sensible program of investment in defence assets. On the nuclear-free position, um, you know, that remains unchanged. And, you know, I talk to our partners and are very clear about our position, um, and they know our stance and um they respect it, and you know, frankly, all sides of the political spectrum. There'll be people on the extremes of both sides of that debate, obviously, like Bris for every debate, but the vast majority of Kiwis um don't see a reason for us to change our position at all.
