US Nonproliferation Legislation Targeted Against China OpposedChinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Sun Yuxi answered questions Tuesday evening regarding China's position on the nonproliferation legislation targeted against China tabled by a few US congressmen."A few US congressmen have been attempting to push for the passage of nonproliferation legislation targeted against China this year, to which the Chinese government has expressed its strong opposition," said Sun. "The US government has repeatedly reiterated its position on this issue to the Chinese side that it has taken effective measures to oppose nonproliferation legislation targeted against China, because the US does not believe that additional sanctions legislation is the most effective means to pursue US nonproliferation objectives with China," he said. "The US side also made it clear that it will recommend the same approach to the incoming US administration," the spokesman said. |
