Regarding the US-South Korea nuclear-powered submarine cooperation, China has stated its position on multiple occasions. We hope South Korea approach this matter with prudence, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lin Jian said at a regular press conference on Monday in response to a question that South Korea and the US have agreed to conduct consultations starting next year to implement the agreements reached between the two countries' leaders, including the construction of South Korea's nuclear-powered submarines and uranium enrichment, and Chinese military affairs experts told Chinese media that the move could undermine the non-proliferation treaty.
