YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

France will boost its nuclear arsenal and offer to temporarily deploy nuclear-capable fighter jets to allied countries in a massive realignment of Europe’s defense structure. #politics #iran #trump #france #europe #worldnews

Macron announced that France will work on nuclear issues with several European countries, including Germany, Poland, and the UK, and could participate in nuclear exercises with these countries.

The move is a historic pivot for France, which has long insisted on preserving the independence of its nuclear stockpile. But assumptions about European stability have been shattered in recent years, as Russia grinds into a fifth year of full-scale war on Ukraine and President Donald Trump raises questions about America’s dedication to NATO and Europe.
