China Backs Nuclear-Free Zone in Southeast Asia - teleSUR English
On Monday, Colonel Jian Bin, a new spokesperson for China’s Defense Ministry, stated that “the establishment of a nuclear-weapon-free zone in Southeast Asia is of great importance for strengthening the international nonproliferation system and promoting regional peace and stability.”
China, the only way you can actually prevent nuclear proliferation in your region is to offer meaningful defense against US imperialism to your neighbors.
It's been proven again and again that the only thing that can guarantee a country's sovereignty is ownership of nuclear weapons (or in specific circumstances an overwhelming conventional deterant like DPRK artillery aimed at Seoul but even that was a stopgap measure). The only way to prevent imperial fuckery in southeast Asia (and elsewhere) is either sponsoring their acquisition of nukes or providing a nuclear umbrella.
