Statement by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The representative of the Chinese Foreign Ministry called on the United States to review its nuclear policy, responsibly fulfill its disarmament responsibilities, reduce the role of nuclear weapons in national security policy, and take meaningful practical measures to reduce nuclear risks.
The US is the world’s largest source of nuclear threat, – said the diplomat.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry emphasized that US statements about the nuclear threat posed by China are a pretext for expanding their own nuclear arsenal.
Let us recall that in early February, the American publication The Wall Street Journal, citing data from the US Strategic Command, reported that China has more launchers for ground-based intercontinental ballistic missiles than the United States, and that some American legislators are calling for increasing the country’s nuclear potential for confrontation between China and Russia.
