The precepts of PRC foreign policy with respect to the role and place of nuclear non-proliferation and nuclear deterrence in the system of international security are described. China's political steps in regard to the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula are analyzed to examine the question of the practical application of its doctrinal tenets. |
