France to Consider Extending Nuclear Deterrence to European Allies

ai generated text

Macron is also expected to discuss the potential role of France's nuclear deterrent with European allies, and has referred to Russia as a "threat to France and Europe". He is set to meet with EU leaders for an "extraordinary" summit in Brussels on Thursday, where the issue of European defense will be a key topic of discussion.

    1. The United States, our ally, has changed its position on this war, is less supportive of Ukraine and is casting doubt on what will happen next.
    2. The future of Europe does not have to be decided in Washington or Moscow.
    3. But, responding to the historic call of the future German chancellor, I have decided to open the strategic debate on the protection of our allies on the European continent through our (nuclear) deterrence.
    4. Our nuclear deterrence protects us, it is complete, sovereign, French from end to end.
    5. If my [fellow European leaders] want to proceed towards greater autonomy and a capacity for deterrence, well we must open that discussion.
    6. Russia has become a threat for France and Europe.
    7. I want to believe that the United States will stay by our side but we have to be prepared for that not to be the case.
    8. We cannot forget Russia started its invasion of Ukraine in 2014 and we negotiated the Minsk Accords ceasefire.
    9. The path to peace cannot be achieved by abandoning Ukraine.
    10. Whatever happens, the decision has always remained and will remain in the hands of the president of the Republic, commander of the military.
