Talks expected on Monday would be first since Obama administration and follow visit to Washington by Wang Yi, Chinese foreign minister
China and the United States will reportedly discuss nuclear arms control next week, the first such talks since the Obama administration.
The talks would be led on Monday by Mallory Stewart, a senior state department official, and Sun Xiaobo, the head of the arms control department at China’s foreign ministry, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
On Monday, China’s foreign ministry said the two countries would hold “consultations on arms control and non-proliferation” in the coming days, as well as separate talks on maritime affairs and other issues. It follows a visit to Washington by the Chinese foreign minister, Wang Yi.

The US and Soviets managed to negotiate an arms control treaty, I see no reason why China and US cannot either.
Honestly more likely than talks with USSR. China has had a vocal minimalist stance towards nuclear weapons. Mao was of the opinion that anymore than the minimum required for MAD was a waste. Shockingly reasonable opinion for the geezer.
But did they get rid of nukes completely? Nope.
I am reminded of an old relevant quote:
Trust, but verify.
Nobody wants nuclear war. Especially the top economies on the planet.

Jesus Christ 🤦♂️
The objective isn’t to have no nukes 👏. It’s to reduce current yield, not advance the technology, and reduced profeliration.
The diminishing returns from 70 years ago are harsh you fucking moron.
This place is actually fucking dumber than Reddit.
