French President Emmanuel Macron announced Monday that France will increase its nuclear arsenal and, for the first time, allow the temporary deployment of its nuclear-armed aircraft to allied countries, in a new strategy aimed at strengthening Europe’s independence.
It is a regrettable truth that the defensive posture of humanity, until everyone agrees to denuclearization, against nuclear warfare is the deterrance of Mutually Assured Destruction.
Yeah I think this is much more of the case because nukes can be more of a distant thought since it hasn't happened yet and people haven't directly experienced it. Money and the high cost to do anything now I would say is a much bigger driver as people are experiencing that everyday and can't afford to have a kid
France has like 300 warheads vs russian 4.5K, plus russians started proliferating first. I say let them do it, sow the wind and all that. Birthrate is gonna be shit anyway while we have billionaires
edit: if i were polish this nuclear proliferation would calm me down actually
