We further wiped out our credibility for negotiations with #Iran and gave an incentive to develop atomic #deterrence by invading and bombing them, spending hundreds of millions in ordnance & fuel, only to fail entirely to destroy their nuclear programme.

"Originally, Trump proposed his nuclear partnership with Russia as an unusual form of #deterrence. In 2016,he repeatedly stated his goal to use #nuclearweapons on other countries.
In an interview in April, Trump said the use of nuclear weapons may be necessary under certain circumstances. When pressed to elaborate,Trump continued: “Then why are we making them? Why do we make them?”
He went on to say he would consider using nuclear weapons on #Europe and the #MiddleEast."

@haui yeah, the Guarantors of the West (#UK & #USA) failed to follow their contractual obligations, making them unreliable.
In fact, their non-action enabled Putin and they can be glad #Ukraine didn't took the logical consequence of leaving the #NPT citing said failure as reasoning.

🔸 20 US nuclear bombs remain in Germany; NATO's "nuclear sharing" continues.
🔸 Polls show 31-38% of Germans support developing national nuclear weapons.

without U.S. ally, Western army chiefs meet to show #Ukraine unity
closed-door gathering of 34 army chiefs, including #NATO alliance and #EU members as well as #Japan and #Australia, was a rare -possibly unprecedented -convening without the U.S.

Macron proposed to start “strategic discussions” on the subject as he warned #Europe against the #Russian #threats & stressed #European countries should no longer rely on US for security
France is the only #EU country with #nuclear #weapons
