Macron says he will 'open debate' on using French nuclear deterrence to protect Europe

They should oopsie whoopsie give Ukraine one. Seems fair since Ukraine only gave theirs up in exchange for American protection.
Just having one would be more dangerous then having none. It's not enough for actual deterrence but it is enough for Russia to "justify" using its arsenal against them.
Oops, here's a couple dozen, looks like we mistakenly labeled a shipment.
Trying to imagine doing the Cuban Missile Crisis but we're replacing Castro, Kennedy, and Khrushchev with Zelenskyy, Macron, and Putin.
What could go wrong?
@UnderpantsWeevil @Not_mikey This is in no way the same, we finally reached the end of the cold war. Now it is upon the rest of the world to decide what we do with the two who projected that misery on the entire world. Hindering development and forcing countries to choose sides.
That order doesn't make sense, does it? It should be Castro=Zelensky, Khrushchev=Macron, and Kennedy=Putin ... but even then, it would only really make sense in the context of a prior action by Putin stationing missiles in points at map randomly Belarus. Maybe I am overthinking it, but I think the Cuban Missile Crisis was a different situation, especially as it additionally also occurred during a cold war.
Say it fell out of the plane.
The Americans have lost a few over the years.
