In February 1985, the government of New Zealand refused the destroyer USS Buchanan (DDG-14) entry to the port of Auckland after the U.S. Navy refused to declare whether the Buchanan was carrying nuclear weapons, which ran afoul of New Zealand’s recently implemented “nuclear free zone” policy. This otherwise minor incident led the U.S. Navy to ban New Zealand port calls by any Navy or Coast Guard ship and to prohibit New Zealand Navy vessels from visiting U.S. Navy facilities.
