According to the International Desk of Webangah News Agency, the U.S. and Russia have agreed to resume high-level military talks in Abu Dhabi, as announced by the U.S. European Command. The discussions aim to mitigate the risk of unintended tensions between the two nations.

Earlier, the American news outlet Axios reported that both countries were nearing an agreement to extend the New START nuclear arms treaty. Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin spokesperson, stated that Russia is prepared to engage in talks with the U.S. on the New START treaty if constructive responses are received from Washington.

The New START treaty, signed in 2010, is designed to limit and reduce nuclear arsenals between the U.S. and Russia. Under the agreement, both nations are required to cap their nuclear warheads at a maximum of 1,550 each.
