On November 23rd, 1974, during the SALT discussions in Vladivostok, USSR, President Ford managed to make a major breakthrough in drawing up agreements of SALT along with Brezhnev. The new agreement outlined that each side would have an equal 1,320 limit on MIRV systems, a ban on construction of new ICBM missiles, limits the deployment of new strategic arms, and that articles of the Interim Agreement would be incorporated into the new agreement. With this move, the SALT discussions once again came closer to reaching their ultimate goal.
