00:00The U.S. firmly opposes the U.S.'s use of China's non-existent nuclear threat theory as an excuse to expand its nuclear arsenal and shirk its nuclear military responsibility.
00:09China is firmly committed to a self-defense nuclear strategy, and has always maintained nuclear power at the lowest level necessary for national security.
00:19As we all know, the U.S. has the world's largest nuclear arsenal, and has insisted on a nuclear threat policy based primarily on nuclear weapons.
