U.S. President Joe Biden called on China and Russia to negotiate a new nuclear arms treaty with the United States, as the United Nations meets to review global nonproliferation efforts.
Biden made the remarks prior to the opening of the 10th U.N. Review on the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), a 1970 treaty aimed at reducing nuclear weapons globally. The review, which happens once every five years, was scheduled for 2020 but was delayed because of COVID-19.
