Details
According to a source familiar with the situation, the practical implications of the agreements will be that both sides – the US and Russia – will continue to comply with the current limitations of the New START treaty during the transitional period.
During these six months, the parties plan to negotiate a possible new agreement in the field of strategic offensive arms.
As noted, temporary adherence to the terms of the treaty should ensure stability in the field of nuclear security during diplomatic consultations.
