US President Donald Trump has also said he wants to prepare a new nuclear arms control treaty between the United States and Russia. The current treaty expires in early 2026.
When reporters asked Trump if he would like to see further reductions in nuclear weapons around the world, he said yes. However, the third treaty on the reduction of offensive arms, the STRO-3, expires in six months.
I would like that. But this (the overlapping of the terms of the treaty — ed.) is a problem for the whole world. You know, we have restrictions, and they, as you know, have restrictions on nuclear weapons. We don't want this treaty to disappear. We are starting to work on it. But this is a big problem for the whole world.
