It's actually a step towards global nuclear disarmament, though you wouldn't
really know it from the headline and story here, or the beat up about it
from certain sections of the media. The decision to negotiate for the
dismantlement of the treaty, which had more or less lapsed anyway due to the
disintegration of the Soviet Union, was advertised several months back.

Radio reports here yesterday indicate that both the U.S. and Russia have now
agreed to decrease their stockpiles of ballistic missiles.
