Trump announced that Russia would "respond" to the recent Ukrainian attack on Russian airfields while reflecting on his "good conversation" with Vladimir Putin.

Yeah the treaty history between USA and Russia is complex. Russia stopped participating a few years ago in the recent version of START. Said they’d still maintain warhead numbers though.
