With Trump's order, the US military is about to restart its nuclear test that has been suspended for 33 years: it is afraid that China will catch up with the United States

On October 30, local time, Trump threw a heavy message on his personal social platform "Truth Social": the U.S. military has ordered to start nuclear tests immediately.

At this time, offering the "nuclear test" card is essentially to maintain hegemony through "ultimate deterrence".

This is the first time that the United States has broken the 33-year moratorium since its last nuclear test in Nevada in 1992, and the reasons supporting this decision actually include "fear that China will catch up with the United States within five years".

It is that Trump specifically ranked the scale of the nuclear arsenal: the United States first in the world, Russia second.

Then, it is seriously expected that China will catch up with the United States within five years, and the reason for restarting nuclear tests is packaged as "responding to other countries' nuclear tests", and its pertinence is obvious.

Finally, Trump deliberately "repair" and acknowledges that the destructive power of nuclear weapons is very large, but he has no choice, whether or not there is a choice, he is clear in his heart.

You know, as early as the 1990s, the world's major nuclear powers had stopped testing nuclear tests.

The last nuclear test of the Soviet Union was in 1990, and Russia has never resumed any nuclear tests since the collapse of the Soviet Union, which is a fact seen by the international community.

Even last week, Russia conducted a strategic nuclear force exercise that tested only intercontinental missiles and did not involve nuclear tests.

However, China has always strictly limited the scale of its nuclear forces to the minimum level necessary to maintain national security, and has never participated in any form of nuclear arms race from beginning to end.

But Trump has not only haunted the U.S. over the number of nuclear weapons, but has even stated without grounds that China will catch up with the U.S. in five years.

This assertion is entirely malicious speculation away from the facts, essentially to hype the so-called "Chinese threat theory" and find an excuse for their own "dangerous use."

In response to Trump's statement that it may cause nuclear safety risks, the head of the American Arms Control Association couldn't help but bluntly say a reality: even if the United States is preparing now, it will take at least 36 months for the Nevada nuclear test site to restore its underground closed nuclear test capability.

In any case, once the United States breaks the tacit understanding of the nuclear test moratorium, it is very likely to impact the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons system and even trigger a new round of nuclear arms race.

More specifically, the dangers of nuclear tests themselves: historically, the radioactive material leak caused by underground nuclear tests, the ecological damage caused by ground tests, are still some areas difficult to heal, these costs must ultimately be borne by all mankind.

On the same day, my Ministry of Foreign Affairs also made a solemn statement immediately.

China stressed that the United States should take practical action, strictly abide by its obligations under the Treaty on Comprehensively Prohibiting Nuclear Tests, fulfill its commitment to suspend nuclear tests, and safeguard the international process of nuclear disarmament and the nuclear non-proliferation system.

More importantly, China has never developed nuclear forces to compete with the United States, but to maintain its own security and global strategic balance. Trump's "frame-up remarks" will only aggravate regional tensions.

Ironically, Trump has also constantly asked China to join nuclear disarmament negotiations. This double standard of "only allowing state officials to set fire" once again exposes the "hypocritical" nature of the United States.

Of course, when faced with the proposal of "tripartite nuclear disarmament between China, the United States and Russia" put forward by the United States, China also made it clear:

The United States and Russia, as the country with the largest number of nuclear warheads, should take the responsibility of nuclear disarmament first, rather than drawing China, which is much smaller than both, into the unfair negotiating framework.

Today, the world’s eyes are focused on the next action of the United States, but in any case,ining the nuclear non-proliferation system and avoiding the nuclear arms race is in the common interest of all mankind.
