China Rejects Nuclear Talks with the U.S.

“China and Russia are rejecting a U.S. offer to hold ‘unconditional’ nuclear arms control talks, a move that risks further fueling global proliferation,” Semafor reports.

“U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan warned in a major address last Friday that the post-Cold War agreements guarding against global nuclear proliferation were fraying and invited Beijing and Moscow to resume direct discussions on the issue.”
