In this paper we show: A C * ‐algebra A with identity e is C * ‐nuclear (i.e. “nuclear” in the sense of L ANCE [3, p. 159] or “property T ” in the sense of T AKESAKI [6] if and only if the identity operator id A on A can be approximated in the strong operator topology by completely positive linear operators V from A into A of finite rank with norm one and V(e)=e . From which follows that every C * ‐nuclear C * ‐algebra (possible without identity) possesses the CPAP of L ANCE [3, def. 3.5.]. This answers questions of L ANCE [3, p. 173] and S AKAI [5, p. 64].
