Background: The name START comes from the original ”Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty”, known as START-I, which was signed between the US and the erstwhile USSR in 1991, and came into force in 1994. START-I was lapsed in 2009, and was replaced first by the Strategic Offensive Reductions Treaty (SORT, also known as the Treaty of Moscow), and then by the New START treaty.
Signed? New START Treaty, signed by then US president Barack Obama and his Russian counterpart, Dmitry Medvedev, in 2010.
Time Frame: The New START Treaty came into force in 2011 and was extended in 2021 for five more years after Joe Biden took office.
What It Caps? The New Start treaty caps the number of strategic nuclear warheads that the United States and Russia can deploy. Together, the US and Russia own 90% of the world’s nuclear weapons.
Word Deploy Means? In this context, ”deploy” means ready for immediate use, rather than have in storage. Weapons kept in storage are ”non-deployed”. Warheads count as deployed if loaded onto a missile that is itself deployed.
What Are The Commitments? Under the New START Treaty agreement, Moscow and Washington are committed to deploying no more than 1,550 strategic nuclear warheads and a maximum of 700 long-range missiles and bombers. Each side can conduct up to 18 inspections of strategic nuclear weapons sites every year to ensure the other has not breached the treaty’s limits.
