Beijing – China said on Wednesday that it would not participate in dislikes with the United States and Russia, President Trump said she expected to include Beijing in the conversation.
Mr. Trump said on Monday that the United States was trying to carry forward nuclearization with both countries.
Trump told reporters at the White House, “I think nuclearization is a lot – this is a big purpose. But Russia has prepared it to do it and I think China is going to be ready to do it too.”
He said, “We cannot allow nuclear weapons to move forward. We have to stop nuclear weapons.”
Russia and the United States – Eastern Cold War rival – they have about 90% of the world’s nuclear weapons, but Moscow out of the previous rest Arms Control Agreement With Washington in 2023.
Asked about Mr. Trump’s comments, Beijing’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Guo Jiakun said on Wednesday that it was “neither appropriate nor realistic” to expect the United States and Russia to participate in the tripartite nuclear disarmament talks with the United States and Russia.
“China and the United States are not at the same level in terms of nuclear capabilities,” Guo told reporters.
“Countries with the largest nuclear arsenal should meet their special and primary responsibility for nuclear disarmament,” he said.
Beijing states that it is in favor of disarmament in principle, but regularly rejected Washington’s invitations to join US-Russian talks to reduce their nuclear arsenal.

Beijing said on Wednesday that he maintains his nuclear forces “at the minimum level required for national security and not engaged in arms race with any country.”

When Putin formally stopped Russia’s comprehensive nuclear test restoration treaty, or CTBT silk, in 2023, he said that the action would “mirror” the action by the US, which signed but never confirmed the treaty.
The CTBT, adopted in 1996, ban all nuclear explosions anywhere in the world, but it was never fully implemented. Apart from the US, it has never been formally confirmed by China, India, Pakistan, North Korea, Israel, Iran or Egypt.
