Russia\u2019s offer for another extension of the New START treaty remains on the table, a spokesman has said<\/strong><\/p>\n

The world is set to become a more dangerous place as a key nuclear reduction treaty between Russia and the US expires, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has said.<\/p>\n

The New START treaty, which limits the world’s two largest nuclear arsenals, officially expires on February 5. Peskov reiterated Russia’s offer to extend the deal for another year during a press briefing on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

“In just a few days the world will move to a more dangerous state, compared to what we had so far,”<\/em> he said. If the US rejects the extension, “it would be very bad for the safety of the world, for strategic security,”<\/em> he added.<\/p>\n

Initially signed in 2011 in continuation of Cold War-era nuclear risk reduction efforts, New START was last prolonged in 2021. The treaty caps the number of nuclear weapons and delivery systems each country can possess and deploy.<\/p>\n

Russia suspended verification mechanisms under the treaty after the Ukraine conflict escalated, noting Ukrainian strikes had targeted elements of Russian nuclear deterrence. President Vladimir Putin called it “absurd”<\/em> for NATO to demand resumed inspections given that Russia “knows that the West is directly involved in attempts by the Kiev regime to strike the bases of our strategic aircraft.”<\/em><\/p>\n

US President Donald Trump said he wants the treaty replaced with one that includes China. “If it expires, it expires. We’ll do a better agreement,”<\/em> he told the New York Times last month. Moscow argues nuclear-armed NATO members France and the UK must also be part of any calculations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
