The head of the Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General John Hayten, said that Russia and the United States could extend START.
“Over the past couple of months, what has taken place, in my opinion, is the beginning of productive discussions with the Russians. And I want to achieve the extension of the new START Treaty, ”he said.
At the same time, the American general has already begun to say in advance that even if the contract is extended, it will also end sooner or later. This means that it is necessary now to prepare for a new agreement. Apparently, he hints that next time the States will also stage a performance.
