China Rejects US Invitation For Nuclear Arms Limitation Talks



The Hill: China turns down nuclear arms control talks with US and Russia

China has doubled down on its stance that it won't engage in nuclear talks with the U.S. and Russia, reiterating that it has made its position on the matter "very clear."

Zhao Lijian, spokesperson for China's Foreign Ministry, said Friday that the U.S.'s offer to join the talks with Russia was "neither serious nor sincere."

China doesn't want a treaty on nuclear weapon because it is a very, very peaceful country. Wow! What if it was not? The marvelous reason is about "sincerity"...from a country which is neither respecting its word nor its signature! China, you are pushing far away the limits of hypocrisy since the beginning of the humanity.
China you make Hitler looking as a naive child. Well, going this way is not very rewarding in the history book. But that's your choice.
