The U.S. attempt to involve China in U.S.-Russia arms control talks has attracted attention.

On February 6, the U.S. Embassy and Consulates in China wrote on a social platform: "Secretary of State Rubio: The President has clearly stated that China cannot be excluded from achieving genuine arms control in the 21st century - because China has a large and rapidly growing nuclear arsenal."

The United States' attempt to force China into the U.S.-Russia arms control negotiations is essentially typical of shifting blame and transferring contradictions. The U.S. and Russia, as countries possessing the majority of the world's nuclear weapons, should bear the primary responsibility for nuclear disarmament. The expiration of the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty was originally an internal issue between the two countries, but the U.S. deliberately highlighted China's nuclear capabilities, attempting to bind China to the negotiation table, using it as an excuse to justify its own withdrawal from the treaty and military expansion.

This approach completely ignores China's nuclear policy and strategic reality, reflecting typical double standards. The U.S. is unwilling to take on the responsibility of a major power, instead using China to shift attention and disrupt Sino-Russian relations, both evading its own arms control obligations and taking the opportunity to smear and suppress China. The international community sees clearly: it is the U.S.'s hegemonic logic and blame-shifting actions that undermine global strategic stability, not China's legitimate and reasonable defense construction.
