A Treatises on Treaties

The recent report of the Administrations letter to Putin, regarding allegations that the Russians have violated the 1987 IRNF Treaty, is a bit peevish. The effort amounts to nothing more than a “cover” for what, at the moment, may not be entirely clear. It could be to create the appearance of response (if only as a component of one that is anticipated) or it could be a move urged by the Department of State as a skid for placing U.S. resources in advanced theater positions, perhaps even a walking-forward of the U.S. Missile Defense System.
