The expiration of New START on February 5, 2026—the last bilateral U.S.-Russia nuclear arms control treaty limiting strategic arsenals and enabling verification—without a successor has anchored trader consensus against a near-term deal, amid stalled diplomacy over Ukraine. No official talks, summits, or announcements have advanced negotiations in the past 30 days, with recent analyses highlighting arms race risks and the absence of political will. U.S. and Russian foreign policy postures remain entrenched, prioritizing military modernization over restraint. The NPT Review Conference (April 27-May 22) offers multilateral discussion but unlikely bilateral breakthroughs, underscoring structural barriers to resolution.
