The United States has provided detailed information to the Russian Federation over the course of its bilateral and multilateral engagements, including more than enough technical information about the SSC-8 missile for the Russian side to engage substantively on the issue of its obligations under the INF Treaty.In 2017, the Trump Administration redoubled U.S. efforts to bring Russia back into compliance with an integrated strategy of diplomatic, economic, and military measures. This controversial Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty eliminated an entire class of nuclear weapons and allowed, for the first time, extensive on-site inspection inside the Soviet bloc. L'article XV prévoit que le traité est conclu pour une durée illimitée, Comme dans bien d'autres accords de limitation d'armements, l'article XV stipule également que chaque partie a le droit, avec un préavis de six mois, de se retirer du régime conventionnel « si elle juge que des événements extraordinaires, en rapport avec l'objet du présent traité, ont compromis ses intérêts suprêmes ».
Reagan and Gorbachev did not discuss SDI at the Washington and Moscow…
Entre 1972 et 1991, les deux grandes puissances nucléaires, les États-Unis et l'Union soviétique, signent quatre traités de limitation de leurs armes nucléaires, dont trois concernent les armes stratégiques capables de frapper le territoire de l'un depuis le territoire de l'autre.
These actions were again fully supported by NATO Allies.Since first informing Russia of U.S. concerns about Russia’s INF Treaty compliance in 2013, the United States worked to induce Russia to return to compliance with its obligations.
A total of 2,692 missiles were eliminated.Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991, the United States sought to secure continued implementation of the INF Treaty by multilateralizing its obligations to include the six former Soviet Republics—Belarus, Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan—with INF Treaty-inspectable facilities on their territories. The provisions of the INF Treaty did not distinguish between conventional and nuclear-capable missiles; all ground-launched ballistic and cruise missile systems in the Treaty-specified range band, irrespective of warhead, were captured by the Treaty.The United States eliminated its last GLCM and GLBM covered under the INF Treaty in late April and early May 1991.
History at your fingertips The United States is currently pursuing a strategy to induce the Russian Federation to return to compliance with its obligations (Hyperlink: See Integrated Strategy fact sheet).
L'article VIII définit les règles de localisation des missiles et de leurs lanceurs, ainsi que les règles de leur déplacement.
Ronald Reagan and Michael Gaurbachev signed this treaty. L'article VI précise les règles applicables concernant l'interdiction de produire ou tester des missiles entrant dans le champ de ce traité. Leur élimination devra commencer immédiatement et devra respecter un plafond intermédiaire au bout de 29 mois. The INF Treaty is of unlimited duration.In 2014, the United States declared the Russian Federation to be in violation of its INF Treaty obligations not to produce, possess, or flight-test a ground-launched cruise missile for development of the SSC-8 missile system, which the United States assesses corresponds to be designated by the Russian Federation as the 9M729. This was the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, formalized by Reagan and Gorbachev at their final summit in Moscow in May–June 1988.
