The United States and Russia have agreed to restart formal discussions on strategic stability and arms control next month, according to the State Department. The talks mark a limited but notable diplomatic channel between the two countries as tensions remain high over security and military issues.

Officials did not release a detailed agenda, but the talks are expected to focus on reducing the risks of miscalculation and addressing long-term arms control concerns. Any progress would likely depend on whether both sides can find common ground amid deep distrust and a strained broader relationship.

The announcement comes as global pressure continues to grow for renewed efforts to manage nuclear risks and prevent further deterioration in major-power security ties. While the process is still at an early stage, the decision to reopen dialogue suggests both governments see value in keeping communication open.

The next round of talks is expected to take place next month, though neither side has yet publicly outlined the format or level of representation.
