Fu Cong, director of the Military Control Department of the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said that if the United States is willing to reduce its nuclear arsenal to China, China will be willing to negotiate with the United States and Russia's three -sided nuclear weapons control.
Comprehensive Reuters and Chinanews reports, the United States has repeatedly called on China to join the U.S. -Russia -China Nuclear Army control on three negotiations to extend the nuclear weapons treaty between the United States and Russia.The treaty will expire in February 2021.
Fu Cong participated in the Chinese and foreign media blowing on the issue of international military control and disarmament issues today (8th).He pointed out that China and the United States have very different positions on the issue of weapons trade.In September last year, Wang Yi, a member of the State Councilor and Foreign Minister, officially announced that China launched a domestic legal procedure for joining the treaty.On the same stage, US President Trump announced that the United States would revoke the signing of the treaty, highlighting the different attitudes of Chinese and American countries to multilateralism and international law.
He said that everyone was very clear that the U.S. contract was not here, and the United States subsequently announced the withdrawal of the open sky treaty and terminated relations with the World Health Organization yesterday.
Fu Cong reiterated that China had no intention of participating in bilateral negotiations between the United States and Russia.The number of nuclear weapons in China and the United States and Russia is not a magnitude at all. It is not realistic that China is required to participate in the US -Russian nuclear disarmament negotiations at this stage.The Chinese side called on the United States to actively respond to Russia's demands on the extension of the new strategic weapon treaty. Based on this, it further reduced its huge nuclear arsenal and created conditions for other nuclear weapons countries to participate in nuclear disarmament negotiations.
Fu Cong emphasized that China does not participate in the so -called three -sided negotiations, which does not mean that China refuses to participate in the efforts of international nuclear disarmament.
