U.S.-Russia nuclear arms control remains stalled following the February 5, 2026, expiration of the New START treaty, which ended the last binding limits on deployed strategic warheads and delivery vehicles. Russia proposed a voluntary one-year extension of central numerical caps without inspections, but the U.S. administration instead called for negotiations on a new, modernized agreement, potentially multilateral and including China. As of mid-August 2026, Russian officials have signaled openness to renewed strategic stability talks alongside Ukraine-related diplomacy, including recent meetings between U.S. and Russian foreign ministers. Key factors shaping prospects include verification disputes, demands to address nonstrategic weapons and third-country arsenals, and linkage to broader bilateral security issues. No formal negotiations have resumed since earlier suspensions, leaving trader assessments dependent on near-term diplomatic progress or escalation signals.
