  • European allies and civilians: Reaffirms U.S. commitment to protect allies and highlights the Ukraine war's human toll, citing over 40,000 civilians killed and more than 10 million displaced.
  • U.S. policy makers and strategic stability: Would press the administration to pursue bilateral and multilateral arms-control talks and to respect New START numerical limits, including 1,550 warheads and no more than 700 deployed delivery vehicles, until a new framework is reached.
