The expiration of the New START treaty on February 5, 2026, ended all formal U.S.-Russia nuclear arms control limits for the first time in over five decades, with President Trump rejecting a Russian one-year informal extension proposal amid calls for a modernized agreement potentially including China. Russia stated it would adhere to prior limits if the U.S. reciprocated, but no bilateral deal has materialized, reflecting ongoing tensions from the Ukraine conflict and divergent strategic priorities. No verifiable diplomatic breakthroughs or talks have occurred in the past 30 days through April 2026, leaving trader sentiment shaped by the absence of momentum; upcoming summits or backchannel negotiations could shift dynamics, though historical patterns post-expiration suggest prolonged uncertainty.

Only agreements that are publicly announced and acknowledged by both the U.S. and Russia will qualify. The agreement must pertain to nuclear arms control or limitation—such as a treaty, framework, or memorandum—addressing matters including (but not limited to) nuclear warheads, delivery systems, verification mechanisms, or strategic stability.
An extension, amendment, or replacement of the New START treaty will qualify, provided it is publicly announced as a concluded agreement by both parties within the time frame. Exploratory discussions or stated intent to extend without a finalized agreement will not qualify.
Agreements that include both the United States and Russia as named parties—whether bilateral or as part of a broader multilateral framework—will qualify, provided the agreement directly addresses nuclear arms control.
The agreement does not need to be ratified or implemented for this market to resolve "Yes"; a formal announcement of a concluded agreement is sufficient.
The primary resolution source for this market will be official statements from the U.S. government (e.g., the White House, State Department) and/or the Russian Federation (e.g., the Kremlin, Ministry of Foreign Affairs). However, a clear and overwhelming consensus of credible reporting confirming that such an agreement has been reached will also qualify.
