Australia will get an effective veto right over Nauru entering a security agreement with another country under a pact that will prop up the Pacific nation's budget. It essentially locks out a policing agreement with China as Australia pushes back against Beijing's moves to gain a security foothold in the region after it signed a pact with the Solomon Islands. In exchange, Australia will provide $100 million for Nauru's budget and $40 million for policing and security, both over five years. Vision courtesy: AAP
