Biden admin should extend New START – official
United States President-elect Joe Biden should agree to extend the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) that expires soon, Russian Duma’s Chairman of the Committee on International Affairs Leonid Slutsky (pictured) stated on Monday.
Currently, New START is the only active treaty concerning arms limitation between the US and Russia. Both countries have agreed to common measures relating to the transparency of strategic nuclear warhead inventories, with the aim of the gradual reduction of each side’s nuclear arsenals.
The treaty expires on February 5, 2021.
