What is the reason for so much fear of China?
America is afraid of China because the Dragon has 500 nuclear weapons. Last year, it was 410. China is increasing its nuclear weapons very fast. Whereas no other country has done this.

That means this number will be between 500 to 1000.

It will not launch a nuclear attack first. Only China and India have expressed their agreement on this matter.
