Should we extend French nuclear deterrence

To ensure the security of Europe without the United States, the question of an extension of French nuclear deterrence resurfaces. It is a request from the future German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. French president Emmanuel Macron replied by saying himself in favor of a “strategic debate” on the subject. How would the extension of nuclear deterrence be translated? Would this allow a credible response to a possible Russian threat?

To debate it ::

– Benjamin HauteCoverure, Research master at the Foundation for Strategic Research

– Étienne Marcuzspecialist in strategic weapons

– Yannick pinchedresearcher at the interdisciplinary center on strategic issues, doctor of contemporary history specializing in military nuclear and politico-strategic issues.
