CHINA must make the first nuclear strike against the US if Joe Biden continues to defend Taiwan, a top Chinese diplomat says.
Beijing's former ambassador to the UN, Sha Zukang said the country's long-standing promise to only use nukes in retaliation should be re-examined in response to the new alliances forming in the region. He said: "The unconditional no first use is not suitable . . . unless China-US negotiations agree that neither side would use [nuclear weapons] first, or the US will no longer take any passive measures to undermine the effectiveness of China’s strategic forces.
"The strategic pressure on China is intensifying as (the US) has built new military alliances and as it increases its military presence in our neighbourhood."
The threat came ahead of a meeting between the US, India, Japan and Australia - dubbed the Quad, in Washington, host by Joe Biden.
During a meeting of the China Arms Control and Disarmament Association in Beijing last week he said: "The policy not to be the first to use nuclear weapons unconditionally has given China the moral high ground internationally.
"But for some time in the future, the US will see China as its main competitor and even its enemy. Can this policy be re- examined and fine-tuned?"
China became a nuclear power in 1964 and adopted the policy four years later.
The country is constructing nearly 300 new nuclear missile silos, while it is thought to possess around 320 nuclear warheads, report the Times.

Oh nice! Now SloJoe is heading to his basement again!
Do it...
The degeneratre cities will burn first....
Maybe we can re-build afterwards.
Have the Biden Democrats surrendered yet?
China is just giving their puppet-in-chief cover when he doesn’t lift a finger to help Taiwan when the Chinese are ready to invade .... and with FJB’s failing condition and the 2022 midterms in the initial stages, time is short for the Communist Chinese to act.
Not to worry!! JCS Chairman Milley said that his ChiCom counterpart promised to call him ahead of time if Xi Jinping decides he's going to nuke us.
And if you can't rely on Mark "Sedition" Milley's ChiCom BFF, who can you trust. \sarc
Will milley warn China of Biden is gonna attack them?
Hunter didn’t do a very good job on negotiating this or the Big Guys Check wasn’t big enough
"unless China-US negotiations agree that neither side would use [nuclear weapons] first, or the US will no longer take any passive measures to undermine the effectiveness of China’s strategic forces."
In my opinion, the paper it's written on is more valuable than any agreement from China will be. For the love of God, it's CHINA!
Biden and Milly would give Chinese the best coordinates to hit, no doubt.
How many nuke subs do we have ? We can respond immediately and turn China into a smoking hole. Taiwan will be the least of their worries.
If the ChiComs want to nuke us, maybe the Big Guy's check was too big?
Do everything in our power to destroy the CCP.
So, Sha Zukang is willing to get a billion or more of his country’s people killed, all for the sake of taking Taiwan?
Bet he’d be hiding in the most secret and most secure bunker on the planet, and it wouldn’t be in China.
Oh, but heck, isn’t it about time for a reset of the human population, and all of the other billions of creatures that would be massacred as collateral victims?
Milley will get right on this (snicker)
P
There is no way a Party official, and that’s what he is, would make this statement unless directed by Xi. The immediate response must be that we will defend the territorial integrity and political independence of Taiwan and in light of this statement we will consider a First Strike on military and naval facilities and on centers of govt. This is a Missile Crisis moment.
Man, we could sure use some mean Tweets about now.
You only end up in a war when you lose deterrence. The sub deal with Australia is meaningless if they don’t get the subs until 2040. We are apparently decommissioning some Los Angeles class subs early, leaving seven or more years on their clocks. We could instead, refurbish them and furnish them to Australia. You might wonder why we’d do that instead of simply keeping them under American control. It has to do with Australian buy-in. We’re asking them, 25 million people, to be on the front lines while we are half a world away from the action. That’s a big ask.
None of this would be going down the way it is now if Trump was the president. Mean Tweets are amazingly effective; more so than someone who can’t make it through a single speech even with a teleprompter. You’d never hear Trump read from the teleprompter, “Now, just turn around and leave.”
