Macron is open to deploying French nuclear weapons in Europe.

French President Emmanuel Macron stressed that any shared nuclear deterrence would not come at the expense of France's own defence capabilities

France, the European Union's only nuclear power, wouldn't pay for the security of others, and its own defence capabilities must remain fully intact, he stressed.

Ukraine’s potential reasons for seeking nuclear deterrence

#Budapest #Memorandum has come under fire because Russia openly violated it by invading Ukraine, & US & UK failed to guarantee Ukraine’s security

Calls for Ukraine to acquire #nuclear #weapons are direct consequence of Russia’s war & #NuclearThreats

It's become obvious earlier nuclear weapons were used as a tool of #deterrence, but now it’s an offensive tool

Excellent piece by Phillips O’Brien. As depressing as the Trump victory is, at least we know where we are. Time to get to work, Europe.

This video from William Spaniel explains why people should stop seeing nuclear deterrence as a panacea for territorial defence or hegemonic dominance, as the Armed Forces of Ukraine have expertly demonstrated these past days. They must be treated with caution and respect, but history has taught us that appeasement does NOT work.
