🇷🇺🇺🇸🇨🇳 Kremlin: Talks on strategic weapons should have resumed “yesterday”

Dmitry Peskov said that Russia and the United States needed to resume arms control talks as soon as possible. According to him, the treaty-based legal framework that had previously existed practically no longer exists today; therefore, the talks should have resumed “yesterday”.

The statement came after Trump said that, during his meeting with Xi Jinping, he had raised the issue of possible trilateral talks between the United States, Russia, and China on strategic weapons. The Kremlin did not reject the idea, but Peskov warned that such talks would require lengthy technical preparations and would take a considerable amount of time.

Following the collapse of the former treaty system, Moscow and Washington are beginning to discuss a new arms control framework in which China could participate as a full-fledged party for the first time.
