Man scheint sich wohl einigermaßen auf ein vertretbares und akzeptierbares Ausstiegsmodell geeinigt zu haben. Und die neue australische Labor-Regierung von Premier Albanese, die mehr oder minder das Theater von der Vorgängerregierung geerbt hatte, hat sich mit der Naval Group auf eine Zahlung von mehr als einer halben Milliarde Euro geeinigt.

The Australian Government has finalised negotiations with Naval Group to conclude the Attack class submarine program.
(Australian Government press release) - The former government made the decision to terminate the contract on the basis of advice about capability requirements for the Australian Defence Force—advice that was accepted by Labor in Opposition. We have reached a fair and equitable settlement of €555 million (around $830 million) with Naval Group.
Now that the matter is resolved we can move forward with the relationship with France. [...] We deeply respect France’s role and active engagement in the Indo-Pacific. [...]
However on 16 September 2021, the Prime Minister of Australia, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and the President of the United States of America, announced an enhanced trilateral security partnership between Australia, the UK and the US known as AUKUS. The first major initiative under AUKUS is Australia’s acquisition of at least eight nuclear-powered submarines. The move sparked a diplomatic row between Australia and France. Nine months later, which SSN Australia will get and when (that is IF such submarines are ever delivered) is still not clear.
