Explanation: The US and USSR decided to collaborate in limiting or eliminating certain kinds of nuclear and non-nuclear weapons. A stable balance of weapons, they decided, could be maintained through ‘arms control’. Starting in the 1960s, the two sides signed three significant agreements within a decade. These were the Limited Test Ban Treaty (1963) , Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (1968) and the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty (1972). Thereafter, the superpowers held several rounds of arms limitation talks and signed several more treaties to limit their arms. STRATEGIC ARMS LIMITATION TALKS I (SALT-I) The first round of the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks began in November 1969. The Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev and the US President Richard Nixon signed the following in Moscow on 26 May 1972. STRATEGIC ARMS REDUCTION TREATY I (START-I) was signed in 1991. STRATEGIC ARMS REDUCTION TREATY II (START-II) was signed in 1993. |
