Pavel Podvig, another nuke expert, endorsed this thread: https://twitter.com/russianforces/status/1628003768615813121

Pavel Podvig's own short take:

My very quick take on the New START suspension (which, I believe is not an option in the treaty). Given the circumstances, it could have been worse. Arms control reflects the status of the relationship, so no surprises. I don't think we will see a nuclear buildup
