If NATO wages nuclear war on China then it will not stop until Chinese civilization is wiped from existence.
FIFY. The US had plans to nuke China in the event the US waged nuclear war against the Soviet Union. It didn’t matter if the US wasn’t nominally at war with China. When US nukes start flying, some of them will land in China. I suppose you could call this a “zeroth strike policy” in the sense that the US will strike China even if the US isn’t at war with China.
