“These parallel reports on the troubled U.S.-Russian relationship by leading American and Russian policy analysts and former senior officials underscore the continuing importance of Russia to U.S. security and the link between protecting vital American strategic nuclear and non-proliferation interests and maintaining a healthy overall relationship with Russia. The recommendations in these reports could help us avoid a U.S.-Russian arms control train wreck and break the impasse on START-3 and ABM Treaty modification.”
—Sam Nunn, Partner, King & Spalding former U.S. Senator
