Beijing believes that the US should stop deploying medium-range missiles near other countries’ borders and stop building a global missile defence system, Chinese Foreign Ministry chief Wang Yi said.
‘The US should effectively weaken the role of nuclear weapons in national security and stop such actions undermining strategic security as building a ‘nuclear alliance’ through ‘nuclear sharing’ and ‘extended nuclear deterrence’, deploying land-based medium-range missiles and other strategic forces near other states‘ borders, and building a global missile defence system,’ Wang Yi told RIA Novosti.
The Chinese foreign Minister also called on Washington to make efforts to reduce the risks of nuclear war.
Earlier, Wang Yi said that he was convinced of the steadfastness and courage of the Russian people, who will overcome all difficulties.
