Oct 16 — Following comments by U.S. President Trump that Washington is
consulting China and Russia on denuclearization, China's Foreign Ministry said
at a routine briefing that the U.S., as a country with a large nuclear arsenal,
should bear special responsibilities for nuclear disarmament. It said China's
nuclear forces are not on the same scale as those of the United States and
Russia, and it would be unfair, unreasonable and not feasible to demand China
join such disarmament talks now.
