After long negotiations, Australia and France have signed a contract for a billion dollar submarine business.

At a ceremony in the Australian capital Canberra, Prime Minister Scott Morrison described the appointment of twelve submarines at the French defense company Naval Group on Monday as a „very bold plan“.

The order, worth more than € 30 billion, is the largest arms business in Australia’s history.
