Putin announced at the beginning of February that Russia has suspended the INF Treaty and has no plan to initiate new disarmament talks with Washington.

The US announced on February 1 that it will withdraw from the INF Treaty in six months unless Moscow ends what it says are violations of the landmark 1987 arms control pact.
