United States and Soviet Union push new strategic arms pact
The United States and the Soviet Union pledged to conclude a new strategic arms agreement soon and keep the old defense missile pact in force as good faith. They issued a joint statement after talks with Andrei Gromyko with Carter and Vance noting no major breakthrough on a second stage SALT, but calls to continue negotiations. The 1972 SALT treaty expires Oct. 3, and Washington said it will honor it informally until a successor is reached, if Moscow does the same. The separate ABM accord remains in force with no expiration, subject to review.
