Summary/Abstract: The paper presents the evolution of two US-Russia treaties: the New START (correctly implemented in the one before last year of reduction process) and INF (whose status is still problematic), and of two universal regimes – NPT (realization of the P5 + 1 – Iran accord Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action, realization of the “human initiative” – creation of the Open-ended Working Group on nuclear disarmament – ban on nuclear weapons) and CTBT (nothing new in 2016 besides Security Council Resolution 2310), as well as the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington.
