Implementation of New START with Russia well underway - Gottemoeller.

UNITED NATIONS, July 28 (Itar-Tass) -- The entry into force of the New
START treaty was one of last year's achievements in the field of arms
control, Assistant Secretary of State for the Bureau of Arms Control,
Verification and Compliance Rose Gottemoeller said.
Speaking at a high-level meeting on disarmament held within the
framework of the U.N. General Assembly on Wednesday, July 27, Gottemoeller
said the implementation of the New START treaty, which entered into force
on February 5, 2011, is under way.
The United States and Russia have exchanged 1,000 notifications, and
carried out 13 inspections, including six by Russia and seven by the U.S.
Gottemoeller said earlier the new treaty paved the way for further
nuclear arms cuts and stated her country's readiness to reduce deployed
strategic warheads, tactical arms, and warheads in storage.
