Russian President Vladimir Putin has made clear he wants to restart nuclear arms cuts talks as soon as possible, the Kremlin said on Friday in response to comments by U.S. President Donald Trump.

Trump said on Thursday he wanted to work towards cutting nuclear arms, adding that he thought Russia and China might support reducing their own weapons capabilities.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said the ball was in Washington's court.
