Following the February 2026 expiration of the New START treaty—the last major US-Russia arms control agreement—trader consensus reflects deep skepticism on a successor nuclear deal amid the ongoing Ukraine war, which both sides cite as a precondition for talks. Recent US Department of Defense statements place the ball in Russia's court for any extension discussions, while Moscow's successful test of the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile on May 12 signals continued strategic weapons buildup rather than de-escalation. No bilateral summits, negotiations, or diplomatic overtures have materialized in the past 30 days, with mutual sanctions and territorial disputes reinforcing barriers; a Ukraine ceasefire or high-level summit could shift dynamics, but none are scheduled.
