防务新闻称，这一举动将使欧洲地缘局势回到冷战时期，一旦美国撕毁条约，美俄可能将重新在欧洲大陆上部署中程核武器，这将引起北约内部的分裂。
纽约时报表示，此举另一个目的是为了对抗中国。由于中导条约的限制，美国无法在西太平洋部署中导武器，这赋予了解放军中导打击的优势。这一举动将使得西太平洋地区进入中导军备竞赛。
外媒担忧，此举将会引起全球一轮新的冷战。

据《卫报》（Guardian）和《纽约时报》10月20日报道，美国国家安全顾问约翰·博尔顿（John Bolton）表示，特朗普计划下周美国退出《中程核力量条约》。
他将借下周五访问莫斯科的契机告诉普京美国方面相关的举动。
指责俄罗斯违反《中导条约》
媒体称，近期俄罗斯部署新式巡航导弹的举动是本次美国退出中导条约的主因。自2017年俄罗斯首次公开9K729陆基巡航导弹以来，美国一年来一直在指责俄罗斯此举违反中导条约。
《卫报》称，特朗普政府在今年2月发布的《核态势评估报告》（Nuclear Posture Review）中呼吁美国重新开始研制中程弹道导弹，以此向莫斯科施压，迫使其重新遵守中导条约。
《卫报》称，2019年的《国防授权法案》修正案要求总统在2019年1月15日前告知参议院，俄罗斯是否“实质性违反”该条约，以及中导条约是否仍对美国具有法律约束力。

美国驻北约特使周二表示，俄罗斯必须停止研发可携带核弹头的新导弹，并警告称，如果该系统投入使用，美国可能会“摧毁”该系统。而博尔顿的讲话又是让本以紧张的美俄关系雪上加霜。
俄罗斯对于中导的态度一直是坚定的，此前据新华社报道，俄罗斯联邦委员会（议会上院）国防和安全委员会主席维克托·邦达列夫9日说，俄罗斯没有违反《中导条约》，如果美国退出该条约，俄罗斯将采取“迅速而对等”的行动进行回应。
北约意见不一
防务新闻称，美国有很多官员和智库担心，一旦美国单方面退出条约，势必会引起北约内部的“大规模的政治争端”。北约诸国的态度会影响美国人关于退出中导的决策，欧洲人正在关心美俄是否会把欧洲大陆变成一个新的核武火药桶——就像1986年那样。

据参考消息网10月5日报道，北约秘书长斯托尔滕贝格此前警告10月3日呼吁俄罗斯“以透明和可验证的方式”遵守里根和戈尔巴乔夫在1987年签署的《中导条约》。

参考消息称，该条约在北约秘书长眼里依然是“欧洲安全的基石”。也因此，据英国卫报报道，当特朗普将退出中导条约的举动告诉英国国防官员时，这个消息让英国官员感到“震惊”。
美国人也不可能无视欧洲盟友的利益，单方面开启一场导弹竞赛。据参考消息报道，俄罗斯新锐的巡航导弹成为10月3日和4日的成为布鲁塞尔会议讨论的重点，马蒂斯在会议后接受媒体采访时说：“我想听听北约国家的意见，我们应当如何处理俄罗斯违约一事。我将阐述我们在北约讨论过的情况。但当我回到华盛顿特区时，我需要他们的建议，并参加这些讨论。”
不过据防务新闻报道，马蒂斯在发表考虑盟友讲话的两天以后，又发表新的讲话，坚定了美国对于中导条约的态度，他说：“俄罗斯必须重新遵守中导条约，否则美国将对俄罗斯违反条约的举动作出回应。”

白宫保持“谨慎”
《纽约时报》称，从上任以来，特朗普总统一直在努力废除这项已有30年历史的条约，但这是他首次明确提及要退出中导条约。在特朗普政府时期，五角大楼官员对于俄罗斯的态度更加激烈。防务新闻表示，对于五角大楼官员来说，如果俄罗斯违反了协议，而美国却继续遵守，这将严重损害美国的国家利益。
但是白宫方面依然对于退出中导条约保持谨慎态度，因为这将牵一发而动全身。《纽约时报》称，白宫方面表示，目前还没有就退出中导条约做出任何正式决定。
马蒂斯在接受媒体记者采访时候表示：“我无法预测它（指退出中导协定）将走向何方。这是总统的决定。但我可以告诉你们，无论是在国会还是在白宫，人们都对目前的形势感到担忧。我需要帮助美国了解我们的盟友的态度，好为我们下一步的行动做准备。”
据《纽约时报》报道，美国官员说，预计在未来几周内，特朗普将考虑签署这一决定。
“甩锅”中国
纽约时报表示，人们正在担心美国退出协议一事的决定，是否会加速美国、俄罗斯和中国这三个超级大国之间日益加剧的冷战行为。纽约时报还担心，一旦美国退出中导条约，势必会影响美俄关于新全面削减战略武器（NEW START）条约的谈判。
据《纽约时报》报道，美国外交官员19日告诉该报记者，美国计划退出中程核力量条约的举动，并非完全针对俄罗斯，此举另外一个目的为了与中国在西太平洋地区进行对抗。

中导协议也限制了美国在全球任何地方部署中程打击武器，尤其是西太平洋。该报称，由于中国不是中导条约的签约国，所以中国人民解放军成为“全球最大的中程弹道导弹打击力量拥有国”。
中国目前是全球最大也是最先进的中程弹道导弹武器拥有国
防务新闻援引美国科学家联合会研究院汉斯·克里斯滕森的话表示，退出条约“将向中国这样的国家发出一个强有力的信号”，这将标志着世界进入一个“新阶段”，各个国家将竞相部署中导和反中导武器。
虽然白宫还没有撕毁协议，但是美军已经开始为未来的弹道导弹竞争做准备，此前，据防务新闻报道，在ASUA2018大会上，美国陆军在“美国陆军炮兵现代化路线图”上，提及了退出中导条约后的发展计划。美国陆军表示，假若美国退出此条约，陆军将考虑研发战略火力导弹（SFM）用于未来的“大国竞争”。
SFM最大射程可以达到2250公里，用PLS卡车改装的特种发射车发射，每车可以携带6枚中程弹道导弹。

克里斯滕森说：“总的来说，莫斯科和华盛顿的鹰派国防官员劫持了外交政策，双方都在努力撕毁条约，而不是试图修复关系、修复条约和加强国际安全。”
美国与苏联于1987年签署的《中导条约》，禁止两国部署所有射程在500至5500公里之间的陆基巡航导弹和弹道导弹。这一举动被认为是冷战高峰时期的降温之举，美苏通过销毁中导的方式消除了冷战末期笼罩在欧洲大陆上空的核阴霾。

According to the New York Times’ October 20 report, US National Security Adviser Bolton said that Trump is preparing to tell the Russian authorities next week that the United States is preparing to withdraw from the Medium-Range Nuclear Power Treaty (hereinafter referred to as the China-Treaty Treaty). ).

Defense News said that this move will return the geopolitical situation in Europe back to the Cold War. Once the United States tears up the treaty, the United States and Russia may re-deploy medium-range nuclear weapons on the European continent, which will cause internal divisions within NATO.
The New York Times said that the other purpose of the move was to fight against China. Due to the restrictions of the China-Treaty Treaty, the United States could not deploy medium-weapons weapons in the Western Pacific, which gave the PLA the advantage of a guided attack. This move will make the Western Pacific region enter the pilot arms race.
Foreign media are worried that this move will cause a new round of global cold war.

According to the Guardian and The New York Times on October 20th, US National Security Adviser John Bolton said that Trump plans to withdraw from the Medium-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty next week.
He will use the opportunity to visit Moscow next Friday to tell Putin about the US side.
Accused Russia of violating the "Guidelines on the Treaty"
The media said that the recent move by Russia to deploy new cruise missiles is the main reason for the US withdrawal from the China-Israeli Treaty. Since Russia first publicized the 9K729 land-based cruise missile in 2017, the United States has been accusing the Russians of violating the China-Gateway treaty for a year.
The Guardian said that the Trump administration called on the US to resume developing mid-range ballistic missiles in the Nuclear Posture Review released in February this year, putting pressure on Moscow to force it to re-comply. Guide to the treaty.
The Guardian said that the 2019 Amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act requires the President to inform the Senate by January 15, 2019, whether Russia is "substantially violating" the treaty, and whether the China-Guide Treaty is still legally binding on the United States. .

The US NATO special envoy said on Tuesday that Russia must stop developing new missiles that can carry nuclear warheads and warned that if the system is put into use, the United States may "destroy" the system. And Bolton’s speech made it even worse for the tension between the United States and Russia.
Russia’s attitude towards the media has always been firm. According to Xinhua News Agency, the chairman of the Defense and Security Committee of the Russian Federation Council (the upper house of parliament) Victor Bundarev said on the 9th that Russia did not violate the "Guidelines on the Guide", if the United States Withdrawal from the treaty, Russia will respond with a “quick and equal” action.
NATO has different opinions
Defense News said that many officials and think tanks in the United States are worried that once the United States unilaterally withdraws from the treaty, it will inevitably lead to "large-scale political disputes" within NATO. The attitude of the NATO countries will affect Americans’ decision to withdraw from the center. Europeans are concerned about whether the United States and Russia will turn the European continent into a new nuclear gunpowder barrel – as it did in 1986.
SS-20 ballistic missiles and Pershing 2 ballistic missiles, the United States and the Soviet Union can smash nuclear bombs on European soil without touching the core territory. This is also the reason why Europeans strongly demanded the treaty in 1986: social media
According to the information network on October 5th, NATO Secretary General Stoltenberg had warned on October 3rd that Russia would "confirm in a transparent and verifiable manner" by Reagan and Gorbachev signed in 1987. The Central Treaty.

According to the news, the treaty remains "the cornerstone of European security" in the eyes of NATO Secretary-General. As a result, according to the British Guardian, the news made British officials "shocked" when Trump told the British defense officials about the withdrawal of the treaty.
It is also impossible for Americans to ignore the interests of European allies and unilaterally launch a missile race. According to the reference news, Russia's cutting-edge cruise missiles became the focus of discussion at the Brussels meeting on October 3 and 4. Matisse said in an interview after the meeting: "I want to hear the opinions of NATO countries, we should How to deal with Russia's breach of contract. I will explain what we discussed in NATO. But when I return to Washington, DC, I need their advice and participate in these discussions."
However, according to defense news reports, Matisse issued a new speech two days after he spoke of his allies’ speech, which strengthened the US attitude toward the China-Treaty Treaty. He said: "Russia must re-comply with the China-Guide Treaty, otherwise the United States will Responding to Russia’s violation of the treaty."

The White House remains "cautious"
The New York Times said that since he took office, President Trump has been working hard to abolish the 30-year-old treaty, but this is the first time he explicitly mentioned the withdrawal of the China-Treaty Treaty. During the Trump administration, Pentagon officials became more aggressive about Russia. Defense News said that for Pentagon officials, if Russia violates the agreement and the United States continues to comply, this will seriously damage the national interests of the United States.
However, the White House is still cautious about withdrawing from the China-guided treaty, because it will take the lead. The New York Times said that the White House said that it has not yet made any formal decision on withdrawing from the China-guided treaty.
In an interview with the media reporter, Matisse said: "I can't predict where it will go. This is the president's decision. But I can tell you, whether in Congress or in the White House, people are right. The current situation is worrying. I need to help the United States understand the attitude of our allies and prepare for our next move."
According to the New York Times, US officials said it is expected that Trump will consider signing the decision in the next few weeks.
"Shabu-shabu" China
The New York Times said that people are worried about whether the US decision to withdraw from the agreement will accelerate the growing Cold War between the three superpowers of the United States, Russia and China. The New York Times is also worried that once the United States withdraws from the China-Israeli Treaty, it will inevitably affect the negotiations between the United States and Russia on the new START START treaty.
According to the New York Times, US diplomatic officials told the newspaper on the 19th that the US plan to withdraw from the medium-range nuclear power treaty is not entirely aimed at Russia. Another purpose of this move is to confront China in the Western Pacific.

The pilot agreement also limits the deployment of medium-range strike weapons by the United States anywhere in the world, especially in the Western Pacific. The newspaper said that since China is not a signatory to the China-Guide Treaty, the People's Liberation Army has become "the world's largest owner of medium-range ballistic missile strike forces."
China is currently the world's largest and most advanced medium-range ballistic missile weapon
Defense News quoted Hans Christensen of the American Federation of Scientists as saying that the withdrawal of the treaty "will send a strong signal to a country like China", which will mark the world into a "new phase", each country Will compete to deploy the middle and anti-guide weapons.
Although the White House has not torn the agreement, the US military has begun to prepare for the future ballistic missile competition. According to the defense news report, at the ASUA2018 conference, the US Army mentioned the exit in the "United States Army Artillery Modernization Roadmap". Guided development plan after the treaty. The US Army said that if the United States withdraws from the treaty, the Army will consider developing a strategic fire missile (SFM) for future "great power competition."
The SFM has a maximum range of 2,250 kilometers and is launched with special launch vehicles modified by PLS trucks, each carrying six medium-range ballistic missiles.

Christensen said: "Overall, hawkish defense officials in Moscow and Washington have hijacked foreign policy, and both sides are trying to tear up the treaty, rather than trying to repair relations, repair treaties and strengthen international security."
The "Medium Guide Treaty" signed by the United States and the Soviet Union in 1987 prohibits the deployment of all land-based cruise missiles and ballistic missiles with a range of 500 to 5,500 kilometers. This move was considered to be the cooling of the cold war period. The United States and the Soviet Union eliminated the nuclear haze over the European continent at the end of the Cold War by destroying the middle guide.
