The United States has withdrawn itself from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) agreement with the former Soviet Union. US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo announced today that he will leave the US on Friday.
In response to this, Russia has said that the United States has already taken this decision to prove that it did not come to the conclusions and did not come to an agreement. The United States was complaining that Russia was repeatedly breaching contracts.
In 1987, the INF contract was signed between the former Soviet Union and the United States. Under this agreement, the production of short and mid-range missile in two countries was banned.
Mike Pompeo has alleged that Russia has breached the deal. He said, "Russia's violations have threatened millions of Europeans and Americans. Our responsibility, take action against it quickly. '
Pompeo said these things from the Foreign Office briefing room He said Russia was given "enough time" for the United States to agree to the agreement. But without any reason, Russia has violated this agreement year after year.
With the United States departing from this agreement, Russia's weapons race with its European Union (EU) allies is expected to increase again. After the announcement of Pompey's announcement, if Russia does not bring the United States back to the deal, 180 days later, the United States will come out fully from that agreement.

Earlier, the United States said that Russia violated the INF contract, Russia has created a new ballistic missile. Russia will definitely have to destroy all the SSC-8 missiles, test centers and accessory equipment to bring the country back to the agreement.
Regarding the US move, Kremlin spokeswoman Dmitry Peskov said that the decision was taken before the United States, without any logic and proving that no compromise is reached.
