The Force Posture Agreement (FPA), also known as the Enhanced Partnership Agreement (EPA), allows the United States to station troops, aircraft, and military equipment on Australian soil.
What is the FPA?
The Force Posture Agreement gives the US military access to Australian bases and facilities, including:
- Darwin military base with rotating US Marines
- RAAF bases for US aircraft operations
- Naval facilities for US warships
- Training areas for joint military exercises
Why End the FPA?
- Compromises Australian sovereignty and independence
- Makes Australia a target in potential conflicts
- Escalates regional tensions, particularly with China
- Diverts resources from genuine defense needs
- Undermines diplomatic solutions to regional issues
Take Action:
- Demand your representatives call for FPA termination
- Educate others about the implications of the FPA
- Support peace-focused foreign policy alternatives
- Join IPAN campaigns for an independent Australia
