US arms sales to Taiwan, nuclear weapons and military-to-military communication will be among topics discussed, experts say The summit might include discussion of nuclear weapons and restoring and expanding military-to-military communication channels, they said. Zhu Feng, dean of the School of International Studies at Nanjing University, said Hegseth’s participation was likely to advance bilateral military communication mechanisms and crisis management. Since Hegseth was taking part, Zhu said China would “at the least” bring in Dong, its minister of national defence, to the summit.
