	Description:		The State Department announced Friday that the U.S. is suspending the landmark 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty, claiming that Russia violated the treaty “without remorse.” Full U.S. withdrawal will take place in six months, unless Russia dismantles what the administration calls objectionable missile programs. We’ll talk about the national security implications of the withdrawal, and we’ll analyze the intelligence community’s recently issued “Worldwide Threat Assessment.”
