  • Nuclear Challenges for the New U.S. Presidential Administration: The First 100 Days and Beyond
    January 15, 2021
    In this analysis we have outlined what we believe to be the five most important sets of nuclear weapons policy challenges and decisions that the new Biden administration will need to address in its first 100 days and beyond, along with recommendations for effectively dealing with each of these policy challenges.
  • Enhancing Strategic Stability: New START and Beyond
    January 1, 2021

    Arms control offers a tool to enhance U.S. security. After extending the 2010 New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START), the Biden administration should seek to engage Russia in negotiation of a follow-on agreement and use that to draw third-country forces into the arms control process.

  • No Deal Yet as New START Expiration Nears
    January 1, 2021

    The fate of the only treaty limiting U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons remains in question as the Trump administration closes.

  • Fate of New START Hinges on Biden
    December 17, 2020
    Future of New START likely rests on the incoming Biden administration. U.S. Army selects two missiles to serve as the basis for conventional INF-range capability. United States completes withdrawal from the Open Skies Treaty.
  • New START in Limbo Ahead of U.S. Election
    November 1, 2020

    Despite pre-U.S. election maneuvering, prospects for extending the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty remain slim.

  • New START Deal to Wait for Biden

    October 16, 2020

    Arms control experts are urging President Donald Trump to agree to a Russian proposal to extend a key 2010 arms control agreement for at least one year, and ideally for five years, without preconditions.

  • U.S., Russia Disagree on Prospect for Arms Control Deal
    October 15, 2020
    The Trump administration again shifts its arm control framework deal with Russia. Congressional and international support for New START continues to grow. States-parties of the Open Skies Treaty gather for review conference.
  • BRIEFING: "Trump’s Effort to Sabotage New START and the Risk of an All-Out Arms Race"
    October 9, 2020

    Briefing with Sen. Chris Van Hollen, Alexandra Bell, and Daryl G. Kimball on the value of New START, the Trump administration’s approach, and guarding against an unconstrained arms race if New START is allowed to expire.

  • Time Running Out: Extend New START Now
    October 7, 2020

    The stakes could not be higher. The untimely death of New START with nothing to replace it would open the door to a costly and dangerous new quantitative U.S.-Russian nuclear arms race.
