A nuclear arms reduction pact between Russia and the United States could be ready for signing by late March or early April, Russian news agencies quoted Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov as saying. Russian and US teams have been negotiating for months on a successor to the 1991 Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty, which expired in December.
The push for a new deal is part of efforts by Presidents Barack Obama and Dmitry Medvedev to mend ties. “The end of March-April -- those are the dates when, if the delegations firmly follow the directives of the presidents, they will finish preparing the treaty,” Itar-Tass quoted Lavrov as saying. “When and where it will be signed is for the presidents to decide,” Lavrov was quoted as saying. Lavrov’s remarks suggested the pact could be ready for signing before a nuclear security summit planned by Obama in Washington in mid-April.
