Asian defence officials said a joint early warning system would also allow China to launch nuclear weapons upon receiving warning of an impending nuclear strike.

Agreed, I'd prefer if there are no nukes involved. But unless massive change happens in the west to oust the neocons running the show in almost all western countries and institutions, I think this might be where we're headed- and that nukes may not even be the worst of the problems the world will have to face if the neocons aren't thoroughly stomped out quickly enough, even.
