"We are prepared to continue adhering to the numerical limits. But, of course, we would need a reciprocal move from the United States," Peskov said, TASS reported. "There is no other way (of doing it). If the other side refuses to honor (the numerical limits under the New START Treaty), certain measures will have to be taken," he explained. Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that his country would be ready to maintain the limits under the New START Treaty for another year after it expires in February.
