Chinese Foreign Minister urges US and Russia to reduce nuclear arsenals

31

In China, the US plans to deploy missiles in the Indo-Pacific region have been harshly criticized. Earlier, the United States voiced such a plan, noting that their implementation is necessary "to contain China's militaristic ambitions."
The Chinese Foreign Ministry, commenting on this statement by officials of the American administration, pointed out that the United States itself is militarizing various regions of the world, building up its nuclear missile potential.

Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi also noted that the United States is trying to "intimidate not only China." From a statement by the head of Chinese diplomacy:



US Intimidates Iran Over Nuclear weapons... At the same time, they themselves are actively involved in the proliferation of such weapons. In addition, the United States was the first to withdraw from the multilateral agreement with Iran, which prescribed the abandonment of uranium enrichment.

The Chinese Foreign Minister pointed out that in the event of the deployment of American missiles in Asia, the response from Beijing will not only follow, but will also be very harsh.

The Hong Kong edition of SCMP, citing the Chinese Foreign Ministry, writes that official Beijing is in favor of raising the topic of reducing the nuclear arsenals of the United States and Russia at the talks between Putin and Biden.

These arsenals need to be cut. You need to do this.

According to representatives of the Chinese Foreign Ministry, the growing nuclear missile arsenals threaten international stability and security.

      In the conditions when NATO is rattling weapons and conducting military exercises near our borders to reduce the arsenal of our weapons is a crime ... the Chinese did not give smart advice ... let it be better to disarm themselves

            The United States is engaged in intimidation of Iran over nuclear weapons. At the same time, they themselves are actively involved in the proliferation of such weapons.

            Well, how can I say .. There is one small and cunning territory that is actively engaged in this with the wrong hands, having huge connections around the world and hatred for everyone who rereads them .. hi

          Well, then China did a good job, it is not included in any monitoring agreements and only voices it of its own free will. That is, no one knows how many and what kind of warheads China has. Moreover, China does not have any restrictions on the number, it can deploy at least 10 active carriers with SBS, and not 000-220 warheads as it is now according to various estimates. Taking into account the obvious successes of solid-propellant carriers, which are stamped like sausages (already a significant% of the launched launch vehicles from the spacecraft - it looks like this), there are more than enough weapons there.

        Nuclear weapons are the only thing that keeps the Chinese "in check." If there were no nuclear weapons, "Celestial Empire" would have expanded three to five times that way long ago. Conventional weapons will not cope with a billion Chinese.

        In order to "disarm to the level of China," first of all, it is necessary to determine this very level. The Celestial Empire is traditionally taciturn on this score. Nobody knows exactly how many thermonuclear warheads the PRC has at the moment, and even finding out this in the future seems to me very problematic. It is not surprising if this initiative of the head of the Chinese Foreign Ministry will remain in history as just another vivid example of the firm awareness of the representatives of the ruling class of the Middle State of their own (Chinese) intellectual exclusivity against the background of the general stupidity of the barbarians surrounding their country. smile

      And they (the Chinese) cannot smear their backs with pickled jam, they are also cunning, so the United States and Russia should cut and Beijing, how did they stamp missiles, will it be? If Washington places missiles at their side, they will respond "hard", and our response leads to a deterioration in the world order? Oh and neighbors.

      Beijing is in favor of raising the topic of reducing the nuclear arsenals of the United States and Russia at the talks between Putin and Biden.

      Beijing will be sent with this absurd request from both the Russian Federation and the United States ...
      The PLA and the US Armed Forces outnumber the Russian Armed Forces by two times, and in terms of the combat strength of the US they are many times superior in most positions of weapons and general-purpose military equipment ..., and in some indicators, absolute superiority ...
      If in the future the Russian Federation wants to reduce its strategic nuclear forces, then by adopting strategic weapons based on different principles of action and destruction of the enemy ...

        You misunderstood the trick of the moment a little. :)
        The Chinese are somewhat more cunning and consistent. The fact is that the United States has been stubbornly trying to drag them into the START Treaty for many years now. Trump demanded it so directly. The Chinese have always answered in the same way: China's arsenals are several times inferior to those of the United States and Russia, and do not exceed the needs of defense. Therefore, START is a matter for the United States and the Russian Federation.
        And here the question is not in the direction of Russia. Here the cowboys were broken off. The fact is that they want to use the issue of strategic offensive arms for a split in relations between the Russian Federation and the PRC. We need strategic offensive arms, and according to their logic, we will rush to force the Chinese to disarm. The Chinese will be offended, but here the state people with their chains and promises will take it down, and again the Russians will be suckers.
        But so far the cowboys are not doing well. The Chinese are adamant, and ours answered, as usual asymmetrically: they offered not to limit themselves to three countries, but to sign a multilateral agreement that includes all the "nuclear" NATO countries and other cunning parties. Apparently, even cowboys' brains boil from this ... :)

      It was true that the Chinese leadership understood that Taiwan, Yu. Korea and Japan may acquire their own nuclear arsenal, because in recent years, the pressure on these countries from the United States has, as it were, accidentally weakened. And this statement is more like the fact that the leadership of the PRC is ripe for negotiations on the reduction of nuclear weapons. And that in such a format this is presented for the Chinese man in the street so that they would not doubt that China agreed to the will of Russia and the United States, the latter belittled it when they join China.

      Why is China not participating in the G7 meetings as the eighth member? The production workshop can already be considered as a separate unit, the opinion of which must be taken into account in Europe, the USA and Japan. Or will they again quietly harm, as they did in their time in Afghanistan? I apologize for the harshness, but all these conversations that someone somewhere is "driving a wedge" into relations between Russia and China are not meaningful conversations. After such statements by the "Chinese comrades" and no wedges have to be driven in. Everything becomes clear as daylight.
