French Parliament urged to question rising nuclear deterrence costs

Original: Alors que le # Parlement examine un budget de la # défense en hausse, que la dette explose, les # parlementaires doivent

As the French Parliament reviews a rising defence budget amid surging national debt, campaigners are urging lawmakers to scrutinise the cost of nuclear deterrence and its weight in military choices. The ICAN France disarmament group argues MPs should also look beyond traditional defence circles to imagine a broader collective security approach rather than concentrating spending on the deterrent arsenal.

Why now: The French Parliament is currently debating an increased defence budget, prompting criticism over the share devoted to nuclear deterrence.
