这一失效解除了对华盛顿和莫斯科可在导弹、轰炸机和潜艇上部署的核武器数量的限制，并终止了双方在核武器移动时必须相互通知的要求。
现在处于无约束状态的规模极为庞大。
根据最近的分析，全球共有超过12,200枚核武器分布在九个拥有核武器的国家，其中仅美国和俄罗斯就占约10,636枚。

在《新削减战略武器条约》到期前，总统唐纳德·特朗普在Truth Social上写道：“与其延长‘新削减战略武器条约’（一项由美国谈判的糟糕协议，除此之外，还被严重违反），我们应该让我们的核专家制定一项新的、改进的和现代化的条约，使其能在未来长期生效。”

他此前曾主张，任何与俄罗斯的新协议都应包括中国，因为北京的核武库规模正在增长，是仅次于美国和俄罗斯的世界第三大核武库。

The lapse removed limits on how many nuclear weapons Washington and Moscow could deploy on missiles, bombers and submarines, and ended the requirement that both sides notify one another whenever nuclear weapons were moved.
The scale of what’s now unconstrained is vast.
Globally, there are more than 12,200 nuclear weapons spread across nine nuclear-armed nations, according to a recent analysis. The United States and Russia alone account for roughly 10,636 of those weapons.

Ahead of the New START agreement’s expiration, President Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social, “Rather than extend ‘NEW START’ (a badly negotiated deal by the United States that, aside from everything else, is being grossly violated), we should have our Nuclear Experts work on a new, improved and modernized Treaty that can last long into the future.”

He has previously argued that China should be included in any new agreement with Russia, pointing to Beijing’s growing nuclear arsenal, the world’s third largest after the U.S. and Russia.
