Should Europe itself become a nuclear power? Colonel Housen mainly sees one feasible option

The nuclear weapons treaty between the US and Russia expires today. This opens the door to a new nuclear arms race between the two superpowers. And Europe? With Trump in the White House, it is no longer certain that we can continue to take shelter under the American nuclear umbrella. This makes the call for our own European nuclear deterrent force sound louder. Defense specialist Roger Housen clarifies whether and how this can be achieved. “For a credible nuclear deterrent you need the triad ‘on land, at sea and in the air’.”
