China denies US claims of secret nuclear explosive testing

China denies US claims of secret nuclear explosive testing

A senior Chinese diplomat has firmly rejected American allegations that Beijing is conducting secret nuclear explosive tests. Speaking at the United Nations, the envoy described the claims as entirely without merit and suggested Washington is fabricating threats to justify restarting its own nuclear testing programme. The official emphasised China’s commitment to international disarmament treaties, warning that such baseless rhetoric from the US serves only to undermine global strategic stability and arms control efforts.
