On 6 February, U.S. President Donald Trump said that, contrary to French President Emmanuel Macron, he would like denuclearization, and that he expected to start negotiations on it with Russia and China. However, Presidential Press Secretary Dmitry Peskov said that “there have been no concrete negotiations on arms control between the Russian Federation and the United States, and there is no understanding as to when or where they will begin.” Political scientist and economist Sergei Karaganov explains why denuclearization is not desirable.

Trump’s election has temporarily put our policy towards the West, including the war it is waging against us in Ukraine, on pause. We did not react fiercely (which was right) to the Biden administration’s rearguard provocations, while our soldiers continued their advance, grinding Western mercenaries in Ukraine.

My previous article discussed the unprecedentedly dangerous situation in which we now find ourselves (Karaganov, 2024). In this article, I outline the new policies and priorities that Russia, as I believe, should adopt, building upon Russia’s National Security Strategy (2021) and especially its Foreign Policy Concept (2023).

I have long been watching the world inexorably moving towards a wave of military conflicts threatening to develop into a third world thermonuclear war that can in all likelihood destroy human civilization. This prognosis was one of the main reasons why I published a series of articles about why it is necessary to restore the credibility of nuclear deterrence, which kept the world safe for more than fifty years.
