The Biden administration lost all leverage for convincing Russia to work on bringing the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) into a nuclear arms control pact when it extended the New START treaty with Moscow, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said in an interview aired on Feb. 4.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced on Feb. 3 that the United States has extended New START, the last remaining nuclear weapons treaty with Russia, for five years.
