“President Emmanuel Macron on Monday broke several decades of French nuclear taboos — promising to increase the number of warheads and making explicit France’s role in European security. Those are some of the most significant changes in French nuclear doctrine since the end of the Cold War. ‘An increase of our arsenal is indispensable,’ the French president said at the highly secure Ile Longue naval base that houses France’s four nuclear submarines. … The French president outlined enhanced cooperation with European nations, naming Germany, Poland, Greece, the Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark and Sweden, which would include joint nuclear drills and ultimately, the potential temporary deployment of French nuclear-capable fighters in allied countries.” (03/02/26)
