The New Cold War

Then why did Warren Christopher (Secretary of State) refuse to sign off on the transfer because of national security concerns, prompting Clinton to reclassify it as a "commerce" issue to be sent to Ron Brown (Secretary of Commerce)?
I have no idea but he then signed an agreement ending the ban on export to China of US high-technology, including satellite launch equipment and computer technology.
It was missile guidance system technology, the same kind used by our military. How could that not help China with nuclear strike capability?
That really depends on the technology. People often assume that technology being transferred is something the receiving country is incapable of producing which is almost never the case. It's usually a matter of cost. For example, there is certainly nothing exotic or secret about explosive bolts. They are just expensive for satellites.
The U.S. Congress disagreed with you, as well as the D.O.S. and D.O.D. It was technology that would enable them to develop ICBMs with MIRV capability. Long range. Before this technology transfer, all they had was intermediate range missile capability.
Never saw that information.
