China again plans to vote against a Japan-led resolution calling to abolish nuclear weapons on the grounds that Tokyo is using the atomic bomb survivors to present itself as a victim of World War II, according to a Chinese envoy.
"This goes back to our position that there is no need to highlight Hiroshima and Nagasaki in this exercise, in this nuclear disarmament resolution, because their real intention, in our view, is not for nuclear disarmament," Chinese Ambassador for Disarmament Affairs Fu Cong told Kyodo News in a recent interview.
"In our view, their intention is again to play victim."
