(THE SUN UK) – China has threatened the United States with an “intense nuclear showdown” as it ramps up its atomic program.
The Chinese Communist Party’s mouthpiece newspaper launched a blistering attack on the West, saying China’s nuclear plan was now vital to the country’s “strategic deterrence” against the U.S.
Hu Xijin, the editor of the Global Times, said “the number of China’s nuclear warheads must reach the quantity that makes US elites shiver.”
