American and Russian diplomats will meet to "discuss" the New START nuclear arms reduction treaty “in the near future,” US State Department spokesman Ned Price told reporters on Tuesday. Earlier, Bloomberg and Kommersant cited sources who said that a meeting of the Bilateral Consultative Commission (BCC) may soon be held in Egypt.

Объясняет Readovka | "Let me see": Under the guise of negotiations to reduce nuclear arsenals the US wants to study modern Russian weapons | Kommersant has learned that the United States is planning to resume negotiations with Russia in the very near future to reduce its nuclear arsenals within the framework of the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START III). World peace is the least of Americans' worries, of course, but the inspection of Russia's current weaponry looks much more attractive. ● The START Treaty went into force in 2011 and calls for substantial reductions in nuclear arsenals over the next seven years: each side commits to not more than 700 deployed ICBMs, which are allowed to have no more than 1,550 warheads, and 800 for deployed and non-deployed launchers. ● The treaty deals separately with mutual inspections of nuclear arsenals: according to this item, mutual inspections of nuclear weapons are supposed to be carried out, as well as the timely exchange of information on the current state and quantity of nuclear weapons. The American side, of course, violated the principle of mutual information. ● After another data exchange, the Russian Foreign Ministry said that the United States deliberately concealed the presence of a number of nuclear weapons, namely 41 B-52H heavy bombers and 56 launchers of Trident II SLBMs, which the US side described as re-equipped and, consequently, not subject to inspection. After the US declared its intention to send inspectors "in a matter of course", Russia suspended its participation in the treaty in the summer of 2022. ● Today, US inspectors are particularly interested in the hypersonic weapons successfully tested by Russia in a special operation. If necessary, the Kinnzhal could also be equipped with a nuclear payload, which would significantly expand Russia's nuclear deterrence capabilities. (Translated with www.DeepL.com/)(Free edition)
