This is a controversial question! Australia is fairly vulnerable on the world stage and has huge areas of coastline to protect. In the future-as in the past- it may have to call on a larger power for protection assistance.
Many people consider dependence on another distant superpower to be an insult to the spirit of independence which is very strong in Australia and do not believe that Australia's interests would be best served by an external power.

To what extent was Australia shaped by its relationship with the US?
Australia is not shaped by the USA. There are some things the Australian government tries to follow from the USA, but mostly the Australian people do not allow this.

Why does Australia maintain close links with the US and Britain?
Australia was originally ruled by Britain so that one is easy. Britain and US are on friendly terms, so that probably adds to why we have good terms with Australia. While Australia is now formally independent of Britain, Britain has always been close to Australia because it is the mother country and established the nation in the 1700s. The US as a world superpower is necessary to maintain as a friend because of the position it takes on the world stage in economic and defence terms.
