SALT I (17 nov 1969 año – 26 mayo 1972 año)
Descripción:
Description: Soviet President Leonid Brezhnev and U.S. President Richard Nixon, meeting in Moscow, sign the Strategic Arms Limitation Talks (SALT) agreements. First, they limited the number of anti-ballistic missile (ABM) sites each country could have to two. (ABMs were missiles designed to destroy incoming missiles.) Second, the number of intercontinental ballistic missiles and submarine-launched ballistic missiles was frozen at existing levels.
Significance: At the time, these agreements were the most far-reaching attempts to control nuclear weapons ever.
