Incoming German Chancellor Merz calls for talks with UK and France to supplement the US "American nuclear shield."

The United States has proffered a nuclear umbrella to protect Europe.  How this would work in practice is merely a matter of discussion, not anything more.  Nevertheless, it is stirring discussion among the European giants to ponder mutual joint-efforts of European nation in consort.  Talk of joint exercises among France and Sweden; building submarines as a sort of joint-project between France and England.  One can imagine these things in practical terms.

Such joint maneuvers are possible.  The Economist discusses its implications for a united Europe beyond EU, possibly.  See its discussion in the March 18th issue, pp. 48ff.   Drones with shared missions, for example..

Worth a ponder!  My opinion.
