BEIJING (Reuters) – The Chinese foreign ministry said on Friday that China’s application to join the Comprehensive and Progressive (NYSE:) Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) is totally unrelated to a recently formed Indo-Pacific security alliance.

The AUKUS agreement, in which the United States of America and Britain provide Australia the technology and capabilities to launch nuclear-powered submarines will be called.

China claimed on Thursday that they had submitted a request to be incorporated into the CPTPP Trade pact. This agreement was canceled by the Trump administration in 2017.
