Australia's Defense Industry Minister Pat Conroy has said the country will not commit troops in advance of any conflict, responding to pressure from the Pentagon over Australia's role in the event of a US-China war over Taiwan. Conroy stressed that decisions would be made by the government of the day, prioritizing national sovereignty. US officials are also urging allies to increase defense spending under the "America First" policy.
