Organization's Own Description:
The Chairs of a newly formed congressional working group on nuclear weapons and arms control are leading a congressional push urging the administration to re-engage Russia in regular, extensive, comprehensive dialogue on a on broad range of nuclear and arms control issues, following the extension of the New START Treaty.
The Senators’ and Representatives’ effort comes as Russia continues to jail opposition leader Alexei Navalny, despite his failing health following his poisoning last year. While hot-button issues such as the ongoing crisis with Navalny, the buildup of troops along the Russia-Ukraine border, and Putin’s other acts of aggression within and outside of Russia’s borders capture headlines and increase diplomatic tensions, the administration has also signaled a willingness to prioritize work in areas where the United States can seek common ground with Russia, such as arms control, disarmament, and strategic stability.
The Nuclear Weapons and Arms Control Working Group seeks to build on this momentum by encouraging these potential talks toward future agreements to begin in earnest as soon as possible.
