Q. START or Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty is a series of treaties (START!, STARTII etc. ) negotiated between which of the two nuclear powers of the world?
Answer: US & Russia
Notes: Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START) was a series of treaties between the United States and the Soviet Union (and later Russia). The treaties aimed to reduce the number of nuclear warheads and missiles and bombers capable of delivering such weapons. The treaties were signed after the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (SALT). The treaties were: START I, START II, START III, New START. The treaties were the first significant reduction in the number of strategic nuclear weapons in both the U.S. and the Soviet stockpiles. The treaties were signed in 1991 and entered into force in 1994. The treaties are the last remaining nuclear arms control pact between Russia and the U.S. The term "strategic arms" refers to nuclear weapons with strategic range. These weapons are mated to delivery systems that can reach targets across intercontinental distances.
