ELKO—President Donald Trump said on Oct. 20 he will pull the United States from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty because Russia has violated the agreement.
The 1987 pact, which helps protect the security of the U.S. and its allies in Europe and the Far East, prohibits the United States and Russia from possessing, producing, or test-flying a ground-launched cruise missile with a range of 300 to 3,400 miles.
