Belfer International Affairs Fellow in European Security, at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Matthew Sharp, Fellow at MIT’s Center for Nuclear Security Policy, to discuss what New START is, the implications of its expiration, and where the arms control regime might go from here.For further reading, see:<ul><li>“<a href="https://www.cfr.org/expert-brief/putins-nuclear-offer-how-navigate-new-start-extension" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Putin’s Nuclear Offer: How to Navigate a New START Extension</a>,” by John Drennan and Erin D.
