On the 5th February the New Strategic Are Reduction Treaty (between the US & Russia) will lapse after both sides withdrew.... leaving the world for the first time in 60 years without a binding agreement between the major nuclear powers on limitation, reduction & verification of nuclear weapons.

Proliferation since START's negotiation means this isn't a complete change as nuclear weapons now exist outside START's scope.

Nonetheless, it feels like a 'moment'!
