China declines to meet with US on nuclear arms control, US official says
That's right. Why should China keeps engaging with the US in nuclear arms control when China is still yet to be an equivalent to the US in terms of nuclear weapon fielding and delivery capabilities?
In fact - Until either the US voluntarily reduces her own nuclear arsenal in terms of (whichever of the two is lower) the number of nuclear warheads or the cumulative yield in megatonnage to match that of China - OR let China increases her own nuclear arsenal in terms of (whichever of the two is higher) the number of warheads or the cumulative yield in megatonnage to match that of the US - Then China shouldn't bother with any talks that serve to stifle her own MAD capabilities and/or putting her own MAD capabilities in a decisive disadvantage situation to the US.

So if the "when-you-come-down-to-our-level-then-we-will-talk" excuse is getting old, then it is only natural that the "when-we-get-up-to-your-level-then-we-will-talk" reasoning becomes the only viable option, right? Right?
What happen? There is nothing to fear about water filled missiles and also the silo doors won't even open. What is even there to negotiate? Fearing water filled missiles is like fearing an water pistol.
