Warsaw expresses skepticism regarding France's involvement in a potential European nuclear deterrence plan, stating that only the United States is a reliable nuclear partner. Slawomir Cenckiewicz, the chief advisor to the Polish president, emphasized the importance of NATO's nuclear sharing program, which allows non-nuclear allies to host American nuclear weapons.
He also mentioned that the French nuclear doctrine could concentrate control of nuclear weapons in the hands of the French president, raising questions about collective defense decisions. Poland, under Prime Minister Donald Tusk, is seeking clear details before joining any European program, while Cenckiewicz underscores the necessity of treating Russia as an existential threat. This situation reflects the internal political divisions in Poland, between a pro-EU government and a president who supports transatlantic ties.
