White House Blocks Pentagon Report on Russian Treaty Breach
The White House is blocking the release of a Pentagon report on Russia’s violation of the 1987 Intermediate-range Nuclear Forces Treaty.
Rep. Mike Rogers, chairman of the House Armed Services strategic forces subcommittee, disclosed the existence of the Pentagon assessment last month and said the report is needed for Congress’ efforts to address the problem in legislation.
