The nuclear ban treaty has come into effect and has been ratified by dozens of countries. Hua Chunying: No binding force on China

nuclear weapon has become the most destructive weapon of mass destruction that mankind has ever mastered since its birth, and the explosion of nuclear weapons will produce extremely deadly nuclear radiation , causing serious pollution to the local environment , May not even be suitable for human habitation for decades.

For the above reasons, governments and some civil organizations have been committed to the complete abolition of nuclear weapons for a long time. In 2017, the UN General Assembly passed the "Nuclear Prohibition Treaty" with an overwhelming advantage of 122 to 1. As Honduras signed and acceded on October 24 last year, the treaty reached the signing threshold of 50 countries and entered into force automatically after 90 days.

Time passed in a flash. On January 22, 2021, the "Span1span Nuclear Weapons Prohibition Treaty " officially came into effect, and anti-nuclear activists around the world were rejoicing. In this regard, at the regular press conference of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the 22nd, a reporter asked about this incident.

spokesperson Hua Chunying said that China understands the demands and desires of non-nuclear countries to promote nuclear disarmament. The Chinese government has also been actively advocating the complete prohibition and thorough destruction of nuclear weapons, and has always adhered to the non-first use and non-use of nuclear weapons. The promise of nuclear weapons. But at the same time, Hua Chunying also clearly pointed out that China does not recognize or intend to sign this treaty, so it does not have any binding force on China.

You should know that the Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons has been approved by more than 120 countries, and so far, more than 60 countries have ratified it. It seems to represent mainstream international public opinion. As for why China still chooses not to join , Hua Chunying also made an explanation.

She emphasized that the process of nuclear disarmament cannot be divorced from the reality of international security. It must be fully negotiated with all parties and proceed in a gradual and orderly manner under the principle of maintaining global strategic stability and the security of all countries. It should not be in line with the current international disarmament. Mechanism conflicts.However, it is clear that the "Treaty" does not meet the above conditions and destroys the existing system based on the "Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty".

In fact, we are not alone in opposing the treaty. All the nuclear powers, including the five permanent members of the Security Council, have a negative and resistive attitude towards it. The Treaty for the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons stipulates that member states are prohibited from possessing, developing, storing, transferring, testing, or threatening to use nuclear weapons under any circumstances, and it also requires countries to destroy all nuclear weapons. Frankly speaking, this idea is very beautiful, but it completely ignores the actual situation, so it does not have any operability.

Imagine that if China joins, it will immediately destroy all Dongfeng missiles with strategic strike capabilities in its hands as required. This is simply impossible to accept. Regarding the nuclear issue, the five permanent members are basically in a relationship of checks and balances. There will be no single country to break the balance and self-abolish martial arts, because this is not only detrimental to national security, but also causes shocks in the international situation.

In addition, even if all nuclear-armed countries agree to destroy nuclear weapons at the same time, it will bring a new problem, how to perform these operations. The existing nuclear powers lack mutual trust, and it is impossible to supervise the destruction. For example, the United States has thousands of nuclear bombs . It is also unfair.

Finally, it needs to be clear that nuclear weapons do pose a threat to world security, but objectively they also promote peace and stability. After the end of World War II, mankind never broke out a large-scale world war, which is a good proof. In addition, once there are no nuclear weapons, no country can be an opponent of the United States if only conventional weapons are compared, and the United States will completely become the global hegemon by then.
