Excerpt:
Russian President Vladimir Putin has opened the door to immediately extending the last nuclear arms treaty between the U.S. and Russia that is still active.
The U.S. and Moscow are the major signatories to the New Strategic Arms Reduction treaty, widely known as New START, which limits the number of deployable American and Russian nuclear weapons at no more than 1,550.
“Russia is ready to extend the New START treaty immediately, before the year’s end and without any preconditions,” Mr. Putin said last week at a meeting with military officials.
