Answer 1

The series of talks between the United States and the Soviet Union aimed at limiting the production of nuclear weapons in the 1970s is referred to as **SALT**, which stands for Strategic Arms Limitation Talks. These negotiations resulted in two major agreements: SALT I, signed in 1972, and SALT II, signed in 1979. The goal was to curtail the arms race and establish a framework for the control of nuclear weapons.
