    Macron to discuss nuclear deterrence with European allies. A look at France's unique strategy

    PARIS -- French President Emmanuel Macron says that he's ready to start discussions on nuclear deterrence with European allies.

    Macron has hinted that France could help to protect other nations after U.S. President Donald Trump raised questions both about the trans-Atlantic alliance and the defense of Ukraine.

    While Macron's offering has been on the table for several years, it has gained urgency after Trump's remarks raised concerns among European NATO allies, which have for decades counted on the powerful U.S. deterrent.

    Here’s a look at France’s nuclear policy.

    Nuclear deterrence is a strategy based on the idea that the destructive force of nuclear weapons would prevent other nations' hostile actions, particularly nuclear attacks.

    During the Cold War, the U.S. nuclear umbrella was aimed at ensuring that allies, especially NATO members, would be protected by American nuclear forces in case of a threat. That’s one of the reasons why many nations across the world haven't pursued their own nuclear arsenals.

    France is the only nuclear power in the European Union. The United Kingdom, which is no longer an EU member but is working on restoring closer ties with the 27-nation bloc and belongs to NATO, also has nuclear weapons.

    In the wake of Trump's push for Europe to carry the defense burden, German election winner Friedrich Merz recently called for a discussion on “nuclear sharing” with France.
