Russia had said on Monday that it would not allow its weapons to be inspected under the treaty for the time being because of travel restrictions imposed by Washington and its allies, Reuters reported.
In comments released by the foreign ministry, Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said the US announcement – delivered to Moscow while a Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) review conference was getting under way – had been the trigger for Russia to withdraw its cooperation.
