Insiders host and ABC Political Lead David Speers talks to News Breakfast about the landmark defence treaty signed with PNG. A landmark defence treaty between Australia and Papua New Guinea has been approved, with PNG's Prime Minister James Marape saying it will elevate the two countries' security relationship to "its highest level in history". The treaty, known as the Pukpuk treaty, is Australia's first new alliance in more than 70 years, and will see the two countries agree to defend each other in the event of a military attack. In a statement released this afternoon, Mr Marape confirmed his cabinet had agreed on the treaty, which he said would ensure Papua New Guinea was "safe, secure, and prepared to protect its people and borders".
