‘Reset to zero’: Russia warns US missile deployment in Norway threatens nuclear talks

In a statement, the foreign ministry said the deployment of US ground-based intermediate-range missiles in Europe undermined the possibility of meaningful discussions with Washington on strategic issues. “Steps such as the ​deployment in ​Europe of US ground-based intermediate range ⁠missiles that pose a threat to the ​Russian Federation ‘reset to zero’ – to put it ​mildly – the conditions for constructive dialogue with the US on strategic issues,” ministry said.
