Abstract:

The declaration by France and the United Kingdom on coordination of nuclear deterrence is a positive development for European security. It signals the possibility of these countries using nuclear weapons to defend their allies, which may complicate Russia's calculations and strengthen deterrence in addition to the U.S. and NATO efforts. This goal would be further advanced by closer practical cooperation on nuclear forces (e.g., exercises) between France and the UK, as well as with non-nuclear states, including Poland.
