The Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG) is an important multilateral export control mechanism in the nuclear field. China attaches great importance to the active role played by the NSG in preventing nuclear proliferation.

China opposes the proliferation of nuclear weapons and is committed to the international efforts in this regard. Since the 1990s, China has promulgated the Regulations of the PRC on the Control of Nuclear Export and the Regulations of the PRC on the Control of Nuclear Dual-Use Items and Related Technologies Export, and applies stringent export control measures to nuclear and nuclear dual-use items and related technologies through legal means. After joining the NSG, China modified the two Regulations in accordance with the NSG Guidelines, which set the acceptance of full-scope safeguards as the nuclear export condition and introduced the "catch-all" principle. China is ready to cooperate closely with other NSG participating states and will continue to strictly fulfill relevant obligations.
