Resumo

In 2021, Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom announced the formation of a security partnership. Hence, Australia and Brazil could become states without nuclear weapons but with nuclear-powered submarines. The objective is to identify the consequences of the decision made by these countries to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) safeguard system. The methodology consisted of a literature review and comparative method. It was concluded that the main consequences are related to IAEA safeguards, nuclear proliferation and the reinforcement of inequalities within the NPT.
