To have nuclear weapons states who are friendly to China to challenge US? There are two ways to achieve nuclear parity:Why should China?
- Matching with own stockpile.
- Matching with many stockpiles from allies.
Of course, the second option is less guaranteed of influence than the first. Which do you advocate for China?
Because we want to reduce the numbers of nuclear weapons in the world.Same question, why doesn’t US help Japan and S. Korea get nuke?
So if no one can force China to remain in the NPT, who forced China into the NPT in the first place?No body.
The argument is this: 'MAD requires a credible deterrence, one which US exceeded while China is lacking.'China decided not to proliferate anymore.
The commentator is too much of a coward to come out and advocate nuclear parity via an increase of own stockpile, another avenue of proliferation. Tacit in this is the argument that the US uses the NPT as some sort of a 'moral' club to beat nuclear weapons aspirants into retreat from that goal. My question is how is China differs from US since China belongs to the same exclusionary group?
No one believes this.China’s nuke tech is perhaps still lagging behind in some fields, so it can hope to get help.
This is from the son of Chinese immigrants to the US? The readers can savor the delicious irony.Perhaps you are right. And finally you get enlightened that US is at the same level of evilness as China, if not more.
Keep remembering this…
