In a report to Congress on Tuesday, the US Department of State accused Russia of violating the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) by neither allowing on-site inspections nor resuming the Bilateral Consultative Commission (BCC) in accordance with the pact.
The New START treaty restricts both nations from deploying more than 1,550 nuclear warheads on delivery systems, including intercontinental ballistic missiles, submarine-launched ballistic missiles, and bombers. As per the Centre for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, Russia has about 5,977 nuclear warheads, of which 1,588 are deployed, whereas the US has 5,550, with 3,800 being active.
It is the only treaty to regulate the largest nuclear arsenals in the world, allowing on-site inspections in both countries. On-site inspections were mutually suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
