The Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty, signed in 1987 between the United States and the Soviet Union, is important because it eliminated an entire class of nuclear weapons, specifically those with ranges between 500 and 5,500 kilometers. This greatly reduced the risk of nuclear confrontation in Europe and helped to ease Cold War tensions. Additionally, it set a precedent for arms control agreements and verification measures, fostering a framework for future disarmament efforts. The treaty's collapse in 2019 has raised concerns about a new arms race and global security.
