TAG Partner & Australia Chair Amb. Arthur Sinodinos Comments on Guided Weapons and Explosive Ordnance Enterprise (GWEO)
Arthur Sinodinos, the former Australian ambassador to the U.S. and current partner and chair of the Australia Practice at The Asia Group, says GWEO began because of discussions with the U.S. military that showed that once a war starts in the Indo-Pacific, the U.S. won’t be able to supply Australia with additional munitions as stocks will be rapidly depleted. So Australia needed to find a way to become more independent in munitions production.
