In addition, attempts to link progress in arms control with iother foreign policy goals to i coerce Soviet behavior by threatening an arms control stalemate are bound to fail, the study said. Its authors, including Harvard Iprofessor Albert Carnesale and lecturer Richard Haass, observed that "for the most part, the the "fixed land-based systems then judged most promising, (or) require abandonment of the Moscow ABM deployment," the study said. Simply put, neither side gave up the weapons it liked most. Instead, they happily agreed to broad constraints on nuclear arms at sites that held little interest. "If the history reveals anything," the report concluded, "it is that arms control has proved neither as promising as some had hoped nor as dangerous as others had feared." Soviets have resisted compromising their regional objectives for the sake of arms control." Haass was a deputy assistant secretary of state during Reagan's first term.

Moreover, they said, "active linkage diplomacy is often beyond the capacity of the United States to choreograph" because too little consensus exists within the government to send consistently strong diplomatic threats. Typically, the report said, "linkage" works only in reverse, and arms control becomes the pris oner, not the warden, of overall U.S.-Soviet relations. "Arms control does not tend to lead to improved ties overall, nor does it necessarily require them," the report concluded, "although it benefits from them." This contradicts the common assumption of several past Republican and Democratic presidents, including Richard Nixon and Jimmy Carter, that arms control Srogress is so eagerly sought by le Soviets that they will bend to American will. Soviet adventurism in Southeast Asia and Similarly, the 1979 SALT II treaty "essentially (codified) existing forces and plans to modernize them," the study said. No limits were placed on the development of new submarines and bombers, and only temporary limits were placed on mobile and cruise missiles.

Numerical totals were set so high that each side could develop and deploy new weapons systems. Even the 1972 Anti-ballistic Missile (ABM) Treaty, one of the most sweeping arms control agreements, failed to ban tests of North Africa was not lessened as a result of arms control agreements or stalemates, the report observed. CONSIDERABLE EVIDENCE is offered to support the conclusion that the past 20 years of arms control rarely controlled arms. The 1972 SALT I Interim Agreement "required no changes in U.S. and Soviet force structures or modernization plans," they said.

It failed, for example, to constrain the deployment of multiple independently targetable re-entry vehicles, or MIRVs. This Breakthrough Just Broke Through. Again. LOUIS F.SELLYEl; JR. M.D.
