四大探长“美英澳三边安全伙伴关系(AUKUS)是一个巨大的耻辱，它似乎就是为了针对中国而成立的。”澳大利亚格里菲斯大学荣誉教授、澳大利亚联邦人文科学院院士马克林在“中国新疆的历史与未来国际论坛”与会间隙接受采访时对中新网记者表示。他补充道：“这一协议可以说是有百害而无一利，也向外界传递了错误的信号。”(吴辛茹)

“AUKUS, the agreement that was made between Australia, the United States and the United Kingdom is a great shame. I think, because it seems to be aimed against China,” said Colin Mackerras, a fellow of the Australian Academy of the Humanities and a world-renowned sinologist, to China News Network on the International Forum on the History and Future of Xinjiang, China. He added that the agreement is harmful and sends a wrong signal. (Wu Xinru)
