On October 16, Foreign Ministry Spokesman Mao Ning presided over a regular press conference. A German News Agency reporter asked a question. US President Trump said that the US side is in discussions with China and Russia on the denuclearization issue. What is the Chinese side's response to this? Mao Ning said that China has stated its position on this issue many times. As a country with a huge nuclear arsenal, the US side should actually carry out its special priority responsibility for nuclear disarmament. This is the general consensus of the international community. China's nuclear forces are not on the same level as those of the United States and Russia. It is unfair, unreasonable, and impossible to require China to participate in so-called negotiations on negotiations at this stage.
