Russia, US. Working on Joint Launch Notification

摘要

Building on their progress on arms control and nonpro-liferation, President Barack Obama and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev met at the White House June 24 and issued a joint statement saying the two nations would continue their efforts to share early-warning data on missile launches. That effort, first promoted a decade ago as a way to buttress Russia's weak early-warning system, is now seen as a way to advance U.S.Russian cooperation on ballistic missile defense.
