J. Sri Raman writes: "China can be expected to step up its pressures for a new peace treaty in the coming days.... China warned that Washington's resistance would lead to an escalated arms race in space.... A recent report from the US Army War College claims that the Chinese political and military leadership is 'gradually revising its nuclear posture and even preparing for the possibility of using nuclear weapons in a preemptive counter-attack.' ... No concrete evidence in support of the claim is cited. The purpose of the report would seem to be to justify the Bush administration's plans to produce a new generation of nuclear weapons in the face of all internal and international opposition."
