Macron: France considering expanding nuclear umbrella to Europe​

Quite the statement from Emmanuel Macron now.

The French president earlier mentioned France's nuclear deterrent (see our last post), but now returns to the subject.

He cites the words of Germany's all-but-confirmed next chancellor, Friedrich Merz, who said last month he wanted to discuss with France and the UK the possibility of extending their nuclear umbrella to cover his country.

The UK and France are the only two nuclear powers in Europe.

"We need reforms, we need to make choices, and we need to be brave," Macron says.

"[Merz] has called for a strategic debate on providing that same protection to our European allies... whatever happens the decision will be in the hands of the president of the Republic and the heads of the army."

Macron also says he will hold a meeting of European army chiefs in Paris next week.
 
this war will be settled on battlefield. there will be no ceasefire nor negotiation.
Putin has made it from the beginning of the war. Medwedew, russia former russia president, said again the war will end only after Ukraine is totally annihilatied.
Larov, russia foreign minister
Russia representatives at UN
all say the same.

how can you negotiate with such people?
Trump now puts a gun on the table he forces Zelinskki to negotiate the surrender.
Ukraine may have a talk, but it won't be in US term, Trump knows that, hence the tantrum and meltdown in that meeting.

Quoting what Trump said, there aren't actually anybody holding the cards here.

Ukraine can't push back effectively as that need a surge of equipment
Russia had demonstrated that they can't effectively take Ukraine soil
US have no connection to the Ukrainian anymore.

So who can talk over to whom in this situation? No one.

Was chatting with an Army Colonel friend of mine the other day and was looking into replacement of US Long range capability. This is our conclusion

US Long Rage Capacity
M795 155 Base Bleed round 40km
M30 -MLRS 45-80km
ATACMS - 110-150km

UK/German/France Long Range Capacity

Rheinmetall Smart 155 - 30km
BAe BONUS shell - 45km
BAe Excalibur - 70km (If they can make it in the UK, UK does not use Excalibur)
SCALP-ER (Storm Shadow) - 150km
Taurus Missile - 300-500km (If German okay for this)
Thales Land Precision Strike GMLRS- 100KM (Still in development, IOC 2028)
Did we miss anything?
 
lame excuse
the US gov can stop every private hostile takeover.
Europe can.
China gov can’t?

very possible no war if Nato not expanding to the east
now too late
but what were the reasons for 200 wars since end of WW2? can you explain?

China can stop an entity in China, we don't practice extraterritorial law. Maybe that will change in the future I guess. The same goes with having foreign bases, officially we don't have any foreign base, the Djibouti base is just a training center. It is also not hostile takeover if he already was in discussion to sell his stake, Mr. Li isn't exactly a patriot, he is Canadian btw.
