<p>As the United States and Australia deepen ties with various Asian and Southeast Asian states, the issue of whether New Zealand or Canada should join the nascent AUKUS security arrangement becomes more pressing. Both states already share deep security relationships with Australia and the United States.</p> <p>These include the Five Eyes intelligence arrangement (which, like AUKUS, also includes the United Kingdom) and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). Canada is also a member of North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and New Zealand is a member of the Five-Power Defense Arrangement with the U.K. New Zealand has also been an active partner with NATO across a range of areas such as terrorism. It contributed special forces to the NATO Afghanistan operation. Australia, a member of AUKUS, is the only formal defense ally of New Zealand and the two states work together on a range of security and defense activities.</p>
