En mi humilde e ignorante opinión, el debate no debería estar en si a un sector de la población se le prohíbe el acceso a unas redes sociales tóxicas y adictivas, sino en si se prohíbe operar en la Unión Europea a unas redes que, además de ser tóxicas y adictivas, sirven a los intereses del Gobierno de una potencia extranjera que ha demostrado no solo ser un rival estratégico sino un país agresor que ha declarado públicamente su intención de interferir en los procesos electorales europeos para destruir las democracias del continente y el propio proyecto europeo y que usa estas redes como medio y arma para este fin.

"Without the treaty, each side will be free to upload hundreds of additional warheads onto their deployed missiles & heavy bombers, roughly doubling the sizes of their currently deployed arsenals in the most maximalist scenario," he said.

#Trump has given different signals on arms control. He said last month that if the treaty expired, he would reach a “better” agreement [whatever that means. He said he’d come up with a better health plan than the ACA too].

Russia said on Thursday it regretted the expiry of its last remaining #NuclearArms treaty with the United States but was still ready to talk, raising the possibility of a last-minute deal to preserve limits on deployment of the world's deadliest weapons.

#Trump has not formally responded to a proposal from Russian President Vladimir #Putin to keep observing key terms of the #NewSTART treaty for one more year, even though there is no legal option to extend the full treaty.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said #Russia was still ready to engage in dialogue with the #US if Washington responded constructively to Putin's proposal.

"I issue an urgent appeal not to let this instrument lapse," the first U.S.-born pope said at his weekly audience. "It is more urgent than ever to replace the logic of fear and distrust with a shared ethic, capable of guiding choices toward the common good."

So far, Russian officials said, there has been no response from Washington on a proposal by #Putin to extend the limits of the treaty beyond expiry.

Arms control supporters in Moscow & Washington say the expiry of the treaty would not only remove limits on #warheads but also damage confidence, trust & the ability to verify #nuclear intentions.

#geopolitics #Trump #US #Russia #NuclearWeapons

Matt Korda, associate director for the #Nuclear Information Project at the Federation of American Scientists, said that if there were no agreement to extend the treaty's key provisions, neither #Russia nor the #UnitedStates would be constrained if they wanted to add yet more #warheads.

"We remain open to exploring avenues for negotiation & ensuring strategic stability," Ushakov quoted #Putin as saying.

There was confusion about the exact time the treaty would lapse, though #arms control experts told Reuters they believed this would happen at 2300 GMT on Wednesday—midnight in Prague, where the treaty was signed in 2010.

As the clock ticked towards expiry, #PopeLeo urged both sides not to abandon the limits set in the treaty.

Unless Washington & Moscow reach a last-minute understanding of some kind, the world's two biggest #nuclear powers will be left without any limits for the first time in more than half a century when the New START treaty expires.

Kremlin aide Yuri Ushakov said #Putin had discussed the issue in a video call on Wednesday with #China President #Xi Jinping and told him that Moscow would act "carefully & responsibly".
