China says it will not join nuclear talks 'at this stage'
China said on Thursday it would not join nuclear talks "at this stage" after the expiry of the U.S.-Russian START treaty triggered fears of a global arms race.
"China's nuclear capabilities are of a totally different scale as those of the United States and Russia (and) will not participate in nuclear disarmament negotiations at this stage," Beijing's foreign ministry spokesman Lin Jian told a news conference.
