AP reported on Jens Stoltenberg's statement.

"The fact that Russia and China are coming closer and the significant investments by China and new advanced military capabilities just underlines that China poses," Stoltenberg told an audience at Keio University in Tokyo. 

According to him, China is increasingly investing in nuclear weapons and long-range missiles without providing transparency or engaging in a meaningful dialogue on nuclear arms control.
