Russia blamed the United States for undermining post-Cold War security with the enlargement of NATO. The United States and its allies will suspend treaty obligations effective December 7, citing Russia's war against Ukraine and its withdrawal from the treaty as altering circumstances.

NATO and US Condemn Russia's Withdrawal from Conventional Arms Treaty

The U.S. and NATO have criticized Russia for withdrawing from the Conventional Armed Forces in Europe (CFE) treaty, accusing Moscow of undermining security on the continent. The treaty, signed in 1990, aimed to limit the deployment of military armor across Europe. In response to Russia's withdrawal, the U.S. and NATO have suspended the treaty. The decision comes amidst Russia's ongoing war of aggression against Ukraine and its disregard for arms control. This move further strains relations between Russia and the West, eroding progress made since the collapse of the Soviet Union.
