THE POTUS OF CHAOS BHO GETS KICKED BY THE PUTIN WITH THE POSSIBLE BREACH OF THE 1987 NUCLEAR MISSSILE TREATY AS THE RUSSIA PUTIN TESTS NEW CRUISE MISSILE WARHEADS - OH WHAT WILL THE DEMOCRATS IN THE SENATE DO ABOUT THIS–PROBABLY BOW AS ONLY A DEMOCRAT CAN DUE–AS ITS WEAKEN POTUS HAS DONE OVER THE PUTIN–AND THE LIKES OF ROBERT MENENDEZ (D-NJ) FULL OF HIS OWN SKELETON IN THE CLOSET SCANDAL WITH PROSTITUTES IT SEEM AS POSSIBLY COVERED UP

Senior lawmakers say it's too early to say if the U.S. should withdraw from a historic arms control deal that has allegedly been breached by Russia.

President Obama spoke with Russian president Vladimir Putin on Friday about Moscow’s compliance with the 1987 nuclear missile treaty.

The U.S. charges Russia violated the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty when it tested a banned cruise missile.

The call came one day after the Russian Foreign Ministry dismissed the administration’s accusations as “unfounded,” adding to the deepening rift that between Washington and Moscow.

The U.S. imposed a new round of sanctions on Russia this week over Moscow’s meddling in Ukraine, where it is accused of providing weapons and training to insurgents fighting that country’s government.

Lawmakers said a U.S. withdrawal from the arms treaty should not be a first step, but should also not be off the table.

“I’d rather put the onus on the Russians than to take the position that we have to withdraw,” Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.), chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told The Hill. “But obviously if the Russians are unwilling to come into compliance, then you have to consider all options.”

“I think that there’s more of push towards getting Russia to come clean,” said Sen. Bob Corker (Tenn.), the panel’s top Republican. “That’s the first step, in treaties like this, people wish to take.”

Corker said he thinks there’s no question that Moscow broke the agreement.
