Summary

Expresses the support of Congress for the present strategic arms reductions talks. Urges the Soviet Union to join with the United States to: (1) conclude an equitable and verifiable agreement which freezes strategic nuclear forces at equal and substantially reduced levels; (2) negotiate an effective means of verification of the terms of such agreements; (3) negotiate measures which are likely to reduce the risk of nuclear war by error or misunderstanding; and (4) concentrate on reducing weapons which are judged to be destabilizing.
