A complete rejection of the legacy of the New START (New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty) would be a mistake, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Monday.
"The New START Treaty expires on February 5, 2026, which means the imminent disappearance of the last international agreement on direct limitations on nuclear missile capabilities. A complete rejection of the legacy of this agreement would be, from many perspectives, a mistaken and short-sighted step," Putin said during a meeting with the permanent members of the Russian Security Council.
A complete abandonment of the treaty would also negatively impact the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, the president added.
