A bipartisan U.S. congressional panel has urged the Trump administration to show “an unwavering commitment” to the AUKUS security pact, even as the White House delays its formal review.

In a letter to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, chairman of the House Select Committee on the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), Rep. John Moolenaar (R-Mich.), and ranking member Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-Ill.) described the trilateral partnership between Australia, the UK, and the United States as “vital” to countering Beijing’s expanding military reach.
