Nuclear Arms, New START Treaty Extension

President Vladimir Putin announced that Russia will adhere to nuclear arms limits for one more year after the New START deal expires in February.

Frozen Russian Assets, Medvedev "Wash" Claim

The European Union reportedly cannot account for the whereabouts of 86% of the $300 billion in frozen Russian central bank assets, having only located approximately $36.4 billion.

This "quid pro quo" suggests that any attempt to seize Russian funds would be met with the permanent loss of Western investments in Russia.
