Question

The purpose of the SALT I agreement in 1972 was to
establish US recognition of China for the first time since 1949.
regulate Chinese production of missiles carrying nuclear weapons.
regulate Soviet production of missiles carrying nuclear weapons.

Answer 1

Regulate Soviet production of missiles carrying nuclear weapons.

SALT I (1972) was an agreement between the United States and the Soviet Union to limit and freeze certain strategic nuclear weapons—notably ICBMs, SLBMs, and anti‑ballistic missile systems—not to recognize China or end the Cold War.
