The New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, or New START, which caps the number of strategic nuclear warheads that the United States and Russia can deploy, and the deployment of land- and submarine-based missiles and bombers to deliver them, is due to expire on February 5, 2026.
It is the last remaining pillar of nuclear arms control between the world’s two biggest nuclear powers.
LOL. The USA has been expanding nuclear first strike capabilities across Europe through NATO since the dissolution of the USSR. The USA designed NATO to counter the Russian military exactly, it staffed it with former Nazi officers who fought the Soviet military, and it expanded ever Eastward. And you think it was RUSSIA goading the USA into nuclear war? Are you fucking daft?
