Moscow postpones scheduled meeting with Washington on nuclear disarmament

The United States said it was “disappointed” by Moscow’s decision to indefinitely postpone a meeting scheduled with Washington for inspections under the New START treaty, a key nuclear disarmament deal. State Department spokesman Ned Price denounced Russia’s “sudden and unilateral” decision and said it was “completely wrong” to suggest that the United States could be at fault for postponing the Nov. 29 meeting in Cairo.
