Russian Foreign Ministry: Moscow temporarily withdraws its facilities from inspections under the DSNV-3 due to US actions

Russia has decided to temporarily withdraw its nuclear facilities from US inspections as part of the treaty on further mutual reduction of the arsenals of deployed strategic nuclear weapons. According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, this measure was resorted to forcibly because of Washington's plans to restart inspection activities on "inadequate" conditions. US sanctions de facto deprive Russia of the right to conduct inspections of military nuclear facilities in the States, diplomats say.
