The concern is that the USA official stated policy is that they reserve the right to use nuclear weapons in a first strike, while China's official stated policy is that they will never use nuclear weapons in a first strike under any condition.
I'd be concerned too, considering the USA is the only country to actually use these weapons on humanity.
