And the Russian Federation on Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (the Start II Treaty) Treaty Doc, 103-1 The committee met. pursuant to notice, at 10:30 a.m., in room SD - 419, Dirksen Senate Office Building, Hon. Claiborne Pell (chairman of the committee) presiding. Present: Senators Pell, Biden, Helms, Lugar, Mathews, and Simon. The Chairman. The committee will come to order. And it is our pleasure today to welcome Secretary Christopher in support of the START Treaty negotiated by the previous administration. I would hope we could keep the hearing focusing on START II and its importance and the reasons for moving ahead on it. We should all understand at the outset that even if START II satisfies our committee and the Senate, it faces many hurdles prior to entry into force. The major stumbling block is that Ukraine has not fulfilled its pledge in the May of 1992 Lisbon Protocol and not joined the Non-Proliferation Treaty as a non-nuclear weapons state. Kazakhstan, which has agreed to ratify START I, is ready to see what the Ukraine does before joining the NPT as a non-nuclear weapons state. Without START I, we cannot have START II. Now, here, I would like to point out perhaps in a personal way that Belarus has met its pledge with regard to both START I and the NPT. Belarus has done this despite internal disagreements, pressing priorities. And I have discussed some of the problems directly with the Russian Foreign Minister, Mr. Kozyrev. We would hope we would be mindful of Belarus' excellent support and be inclined to reciprocate as we meet some of that nation's urgent needs. I will return now to the ranking minority member and ask him for his statement. Senator Helms. Thank you, Mr. Chairman. And I, too, welcome the Secretary back home. I am glad he bought a round-trip ticket to every place you went. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Can a nation accept limits in an arms competition? James H. Lebovic explores the logic of seeking peace in an arms race. Flawed Logics offers a compelling intellectual history of U.S.-Russian strategic nuclear arms control. Lebovic thoroughly reviews the critical role of ideas and assumptions in U.S. arms control debates, tying them to controversies over U.S. nuclear strategy from the birth of the atomic age to the present. Each nuclear arms treaty—from the Truman to the Obama administration—is assessed in depth and the positions of proponents and opponents are systematically presented, discussed, and critiqued. Lebovic concludes that the terms of these treaties with the Russians were never as good as U.S. proponents claimed nor as bad as opponents feared. The comprehensive analysis in Flawed Logics is objective and balanced, challenging the logic of hawks and doves, Democrats and Republicans, and theorists of all schools with equal vigor. Lebovic’s controversial argument will promote debate as to the very plausibility of arms control.

This book was released on 2011-05 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Treaty between the U.S. and the Russian Federation on Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (the New START Treaty) will commit the U.S. and Russia to reductions in strategic offensive arms. By continuing predictability and transparency between the parties, it would ensure strategic stability while enabling the U.S. to maintain an effective nuclear deterrent. New START builds upon the Treaty Between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. on the START Treaty of 1991 and the Treaty Between the U.S. and the Russian Federation on the Moscow Treaty of 2002. This report recommends that the Senate ratify the new START treaty, as set forth in this report. This is a print on demand report.

Book excerpt: "On December 22, 2010, by a vote of 71-26, the United States Senate passed a resolution of ratification of the Treaty between the United States of America and the Russian Federation on Measures for the Further Reduction and Limitation of Strategic Offensive Arms (New START). The vote marked the culmination of an eight-month legislative process capped by eight days of often intense floor debate. The lopsided nature of the final vote masked the reality of an often-times acrimonious dialogue between a determined Democrat majority led by John Kerry (D-MA), Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee (SFRC) and a vocal Republican minority led by Minority Whip, Jon Kyl (R-AZ); and although New START proponents seem to have won a substantial victory, New START actually fell well short of the nearly unanimous Senate support garnered by the all prior U.S.-Russian arms control treaties."--Introduction.
Download or read book The New Start Treaty written by Congressional Service and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-03-10 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States and Russia signed the New START Treaty on April 8, 2010. After more than 20 hearings, the U.S. Senate gave its advice and consent to ratification on December 22, 2010, by a vote of 71-26. Both houses of the Russian parliament-the Duma and Federation Council-approved the treaty in late January 2011, and it entered into force on February 5, 2011, after Secretary of State Clinton and Foreign Minister Lavrov exchanged the instruments of ratification. Reductions were to be implemented by February 5, 2018, a goal met by both parties. New START provides the parties with 7 years to reduce their forces, and will remain in force for a total of 10 years. It limits each side to no more than 800 deployed and nondeployed land-based intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) and submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) launchers and deployed and nondeployed heavy bombers equipped to carry nuclear armaments. Within that total, each side can retain no more than 700 deployed ICBMs, deployed SLBMs, and deployed heavy bombers equipped to carry nuclear armaments. The treaty also limits each side to no more than 1,550 deployed warheads; those are the actual number of warheads on deployed ICBMs and SLBMs, and one warhead for each deployed heavy bomber. New START contains detailed definitions and counting rules that will help the parties calculate the number of warheads that count under the treaty limits. Moreover, the delivery vehicles and their warheads will count under the treaty limits until they are converted or eliminated according to the provisions described in the treaty's Protocol. These provisions are far less demanding than those in the original START Treaty and will provide the United States and Russia with far more flexibility in determining how to reduce their forces to meet the treaty limits. The monitoring and verification regime in the New START Treaty is less costly and complex than the regime in START. Like START, though, it contains detailed definitions of items limited by the treaty; provisions governing the use of national technical means (NTM) to gather data on each side's forces and activities; an extensive database that identifies the numbers, types, and locations of items limited by the treaty; provisions requiring notifications about items limited by the treaty; and inspections allowing the parties to confirm information shared during data exchanges. New START does not limit current or planned U.S. missile defense programs. It does ban the conversion of ICBM and SLBM launchers to launchers for missile defense interceptors, but the United States never intended to pursue such conversions when deploying missile defense interceptors. Under New START, the United States can deploy conventional warheads on its ballistic missiles, but these will count under the treaty limit on nuclear warheads. The United States may deploy a small number of these systems during the time that New START is in force. The Obama Administration and outside analysts argued that New START strengthens strategic stability and enhances U.S. national security. Critics, however, questioned whether the treaty serves U.S. national security interests, as Russia was likely to reduce its forces with or without an arms control agreement and because the United States and Russia no longer need arms control treaties to manage their relationship. Secretary of State-designate Tillerson offered support for the Treaty during his confirmation hearings, noting that he supports "the long-standing bipartisan policy of engaging with Russia and other nuclear arms states to verifiably reduce nuclear stockpiles" and that it is important for the United States "to stay engaged with Russia [and] hold them accountable to commitments made under the New START." The 2018 Nuclear Posture Review confirmed that the United States would continue to implement the Treaty, at least through 2021.
