The INF Treaty benefits the security of the United States, our allies, and the Russian Federation.
The New START treaty is just one element of a comprehensive strategy to implement the President's nuclear security agenda.
This administration came into office with nuclear nonproliferation as a critical component of our foreign policy.
Without a treaty, we would have significantly less predictability regarding Russia's strategic force plans for the next 10 years.
