USA are drifting toward a fraught nuclear arms race

Politico 5th Aug 2020, U.S.-Russia relations are at a dangerous dead end that threatens the U.S.
national interest. The risk of a military confrontation that could go
nuclear is again real. We are drifting toward a fraught nuclear arms race,
with our foreign-policy arsenal reduced mainly to reactions, sanctions,
public shaming and congressional resolutions. The global Covid-19 pandemic
and the resulting serious worldwide economic decline, rather than fostering
cooperation, have only reinforced the current downward trajectory.
