Steve Rosenberg: Russia is staying quiet on Trump’s nuclear move
In recent developments regarding nuclear arms control, Russia has chosen to remain silent following President Donald Trump’s decision to pull out of the Open Skies Treaty. The treaty, which allows member countries to conduct unarmed surveillance flights over each other’s territories, was signed in 1992 and had been seen as a key element of building trust and transparency between the United States and Russia.
President Trump cited continuous violations by Russia as the primary reason for the U.S. withdrawal from the treaty. Moscow, on the other hand, has not issued any official statement in response to this move. This silence is notable, considering that in the past, Russia has been vocal about its concerns regarding U.S. actions in the realm of arms control.
The lack of a clear response from Russia leaves analysts speculating about Moscow’s motives and next steps. Some believe that Russia might view the U.S. exit from the treaty as an opportunity to divert attention from its own violations, while others suggest that Moscow could be adopting a wait-and-see approach to gauge the implications of the U.S. withdrawal.
Given the already strained relations between the U.S. and Russia in the domain of arms control and the broader geopolitical landscape, the silence from the Russian side adds another layer of complexity to the situation. It remains to be seen how this development will impact future arms control agreements and the overall security dynamics between these two nuclear powers.
