The Pentagon has claimed that China will double its nuclear arsenal in the next decade. The Pentagon claims in its annual report on China's military that China is modernizing and expanding its nuclear arsenal. In that case, the number of China's nuclear warheads will be at least double the current number in the next decade. The report says China currently has fewer than 200 nuclear weapons. The Pentagon report also said that in the next five years, the Chinese government will increase the number of intercontinental ballistic missiles, which would pose a significant threat to the United States. The Pentagon reports that China has already begun to modernize military equipment, including shipbuilding, land-based conventional ballistic and cruise missiles and integrated air defense systems, or to upgrade military equipment. Kingston Reef, director general of the Association for Disarmament and Risk Reduction, said in a report on the Pentagon that Russia and the United States would be far more powerful than China in terms of nuclear weapons, even if what they said about China's nuclear weapons were true. Excessive concern cannot be taken away from the US arms race.
