Russian upper house votes to exit Open Skies Treaty after U.S. officials told Moscow last month that U.S. President Joe Biden’s administration had decided not to re-enter the treaty

CHRIS MACHIAN /The Associated Press

As a presidential candidate, Biden had criticized Trump’s withdrawal as “short-sighted.” Moscow has signalled its readiness to reverse the withdrawal procedure and stay in the 1992 treaty if the United States returns to the agreement.After the Russian upper house voted to leave the treaty, it would now come to Russian President Vladimir Putin for signing. If Putin endorses the exit, it would take effect in six months.

Trump pulled out of the pact last year, arguing that Russian violations made it untenable for Washington to remain a party. Washington completed its withdrawal from the treaty in November.
