The People's Republic of China maintains its nuclear forces at the minimum necessary level and has no intention to participate in the arms race, Lin Jiang, the official representative of the Foreign Ministry of the People's Republic of China, stated at a press conference held on Wednesday.
It is worth noting that the contract period of the SNF-3 (Government Strategic Offensive Arms Limitation Treaty) expired on Wednesday.
Yesterday, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that after the expiration of the agreement, Russia is ready to keep the restrictions mentioned in the document for one year. He clarified that the measures to maintain the restrictions will be effective only if the US reciprocates.
US President Donald Trump, according to a number of media, noted that Putin's proposal is a good idea.
