France expands nuclear deterrence coordination with European nations

France has begun expanding and coordinating its nuclear deterrent role with ten European nations, driven by growing mistrust in the reliability of U.S. security guarantees. The move signals a deepening of European defence autonomy discussions, with France positioning itself as a potential nuclear backstop for EU partners amid uncertainty over Washington's long-term commitments to NATO allies.

Why now: Fears about the dependability of American security guarantees are pushing European countries to explore French-led nuclear coordination.
