China Calls-Off Arms Control Talks With USA

The responsibility for this situation lies entirely with the US.”

By Hal Turner: China has called-off arms control talks with US over weapon sales to Taiwan.

China has cut off arms control and NUCLEAR non-proliferation talks with the United States because of Washington’s arms sales to Taiwan, the Chinese foreign ministry said on Wednesday.

“China has decided to suspend talks with the US on holding a new round of arms control and non-proliferation consultations,” ministry spokesman Lin Jian said. “The responsibility for this situation lies entirely with the US.”

He said the US’ continued sales of weapons to the island in the face of Beijing’s opposition had “severely damaged the political atmosphere necessary for continued arms control consultations between the two sides.”

"Washington must respect Beijing’s core interests if communication is to continue" the Chinese foreign ministry said.
