    Of all nuclear powers France is top of my list to actually use nuclear weapons first.

    Never fuck with the French.

    They lost 1 war after centuries of successful military campaigns and now people associate them with the white flag. They were a super power. There’s a reason everyone on the planet knows what a croissant is.

      Their current nuclear policy if they believe someone is going to credibly deploy nuclear weapons against the French is to fire a nuclear-tipped air-to-ground missile at the power in question, as a warning shot.

        So they’re openly saying what every nuclear power would do, got it.

        Don’t you think every nuclear power will launch nukes at military targets the second they become aware someone intends to do the same?
