Desired by whom?  I"m not happy the dictatorial Putin is now bragging about expansion and consolidation of the Russian military.

Wondering what will happen to New Start now. Will that be abandoned for a new arms race?

When Reagan announced the Star Wars program back in '83, the Soviets broke off discussion of arms limitations and both
sides doubled their nuclear arsenal.
