The United States is disappointed by the Russian announcement of its intention to suspend implementation of the Conventional Armed Forces In Europe (CFE) Treaty.
The United States remains committed to CFE's full implementation. We also remain committed to the ratification and entry into force of the Adapted CFE Treaty. We look forward to continuing to engage with Russia and the other States Parties to the Treaty to create the conditions necessary for ratification by all 30 CFE States.
