Dick Lugar: “China is demanding a greater say in the management of the world economy through the G20 and other mechanisms.”

Congress has the ability to press the administration on its strategy to prevent a new Euro-missile race and increased instability in the absence of the INF Treaty.

In the likely event the INF Treaty collapses in August, the only remaining bilateral U.S.-Russia arms control agreement would be New START, which expires in 2021 but can be extended by up to five years through agreement by both parties.

Congress could condition funding to develop new missiles on receipt from the administration of a comprehensive military, economic, and diplomatic strategy to bring Russia back into compliance with the treaty.

That is a very dangerous attitude to take.
