美国指责俄罗斯违反一项具有历史意义的禁止核试验条约,试射了一种陆基巡航导弹。

美国官员说,奥巴马总统星期一致信俄罗斯总统普京,表示美国确定俄罗斯违反了1987年签署的一项条约。《纽约时报》星期一晚间率先报道了这一举措。

美国说,俄罗斯试射一种新型陆基巡航导弹,此举违反了里根总统与苏联领导人戈尔巴乔夫签署的中程核武器条约。

签署中程核武器条约是为了销毁射程为5百公里至5千5百公里的陆基巡航导弹。

美国官员说,奥巴马政府愿与俄罗斯就有关问题举行高层会谈,并希望确保俄罗斯遵守有关条约的规定。

莫斯科还没有对此做出回应。

The United States has accused Russia of violating a historic nuclear test ban treaty by testing a ground-launched cruise missile.

U.S officials say President Barack Obama informed Russian President Vladimir Putin in a letter Monday of the U.S.' determination that Russia broke the 1987 treaty.  The move was first reported Monday evening by The New York Times.

The U.S. says Russia tested a new ground-launched cruise missile, breaking the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty that President Ronald Reagan signed with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev.

The Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty was designed to eliminate ground-launched cruise missiles with ranges of 500 to 5,500 kilometers.

U.S. officials said the Obama administration is willing to hold high-level discussions on the issue and wants assurances that Russia will comply with the treaty requirements going forward.

There was no immediate response from Moscow.
