French President Emmanuel Macron has ignited a major geopolitical debate by proposing that France’s nuclear deterrent could help protect Europe from threats posed by Russia. In a televised address, Macron described Russia as a danger to both France and the European Union, suggesting a strategic discussion among European allies on nuclear deterrence. As the only nuclear power in the EU, France holds a unique position, but Macron made it clear that the decision to use nuclear weapons would remain solely with the French president. EU leaders will discuss this issue at a special summit in Brussels, where topics will also include support for Ukraine and European defense. Watch. #france #emmanuelmacron #europe #russia
