‘The Nuclear Patron Of All…’ Russia’s First Reaction To UK And France’s Nuclear Pact SHOCKS World [Video]

‘The Nuclear Patron Of All…’ Russia’s First Reaction To UK And France’s Nuclear Pact SHOCKS World

Britain and France have unveiled a powerful new nuclear cooperation pact — dubbed the Northward Declaration — pledging deeper coordination of their arsenals amid rising European tensions. British PM Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron announced the agreement in a joint statement, vowing unified deterrence against any "extreme threat" to the continent. Russia reacted sharply, calling the pact part of NATO's "anti-Russian canvas" and warning it would be considered in future military planning. Moscow has condemned the UK-France coordination as a dangerous escalation and an extension of Washington's influence in Europe. With nearly 500 nuclear warheads combined, the UK and France’s alignment significantly alters the nuclear landscape in Europe. Macron denied any link to Ukraine but said the pact "sends a message" to allies and enemies alike. Russian Deputy FM Ryabkov warned Moscow will now factor London and Paris’ joint nuclear force into its military strategy. #UKFranceNuclearPact #NorthwardDeclaration #NATOvsRussia #MacronStarmerNuclear #NuclearDeterrence #RussiaWarning #NuclearAlliance #EuropeNuclearTensions #NuclearBlackmail #MoscowNuclearThreat #NATOPolicy #RussiaUKTensions #FranceRussiaTensions #EuropeanSecurityCrisis #MacronUKNuclearDeal #KeirStarmerMacron #NuclearCoordination #RussiaNuclearResponse #GlobalNuclearArms #NuclearWarRisk ~HT.410~ED.102~GR.125~

In a landmark move, the UK and France have signed a historic agreement to coordinate their nuclear forces in response to growing threats—particularly from Russia. The pact strengthens joint deterrence capabilities and marks a unified European nuclear posture not seen before. The deal also expands their Joint Expeditionary Force to 50,000 troops. Leaders Macron and Starmer called it a “renewed vision” for European security, reaffirming support for Ukraine and warning against easing pressure on Putin as war escalates. #UKFrancePact #NuclearDeal #StrategicDeterrence #RussiaThreat #EuropeanUnity #StormShadow #Macron #Starmer #NuclearSecurity #JointExpeditionaryForce #UkraineSupport #RomeConference #KyivAllies #DefencePact #PutinWorried #UnifiedEurope #PostWarPlanning #MilitaryCooperation #BreakingNews #GlobalSecurity #FranceUK #CeasefireSupport #EuropeanDefence #CoalitionOfTheWilling #StormShadowMissiles #MacronStarmer #Geopolitics #RomeSummit #NATOPlus #NuclearCooperation Also Read Iran, US Hold First High-Level Nuclear Talks Since 2018 In Oman :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-us-hold-first-high-level-nuclear-talks-since-2018-in-oman-4122717.html?ref=DMDesc Nuclear cooperation key to future India-Japan ties: Jaishankar :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/nuclear-cooperation-key-to-future-india-japan-ties-jaishankar-2539260.html?ref=DMDesc India-France to build six nuke reactor units at Jaitapur :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-france-build-six-nuke-reactor-units-at-jaitapur-1993750.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

Trump-Putin Bromance ENDS? Putin ‘Unmoved’ By Trump’s Pressure On Ukraine Peace Talks | Ukraine War

Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly unfazed by U.S. President Donald Trump’s growing pressure to reach a swift resolution in Ukraine. According to the Financial Times, Putin remains "immune" to Trump’s urgency and insists that peace talks must first address what he calls the “root causes” of the conflict. These include NATO’s eastward expansion, Western military aid to Ukraine, and alleged discrimination against Russian-speaking citizens. The report says Putin conveyed this stance directly during recent calls with Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron. Despite Western efforts to halt the war, Putin blames the conflict on long-standing U.S. and EU policies that transformed Ukraine into an anti-Russia stronghold. As U.S. military aid continues to flow into Ukraine, Moscow warns the conflict will only escalate unless core Russian concerns are recognized and resolved. #Putin #Trump #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #NATOTensions #Zelensky #Macron #Geopolitics #WarInUkraine #RussiaNews #TrumpNews #BidenUkraine #WesternMedia #PeaceTalks #UkraineCrisis #GlobalTensions #Kremlin #UkraineConflict #RootCauses #ModernWar Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc 40 Russian Aircraft Downed By Ukraine: Reports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/40-russian-aircraft-downed-by-ukraine-reports-4169609.html?ref=DMDesc Deeper Look At Talks Between US And Russian Officials And What Comes Next :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/deeper-look-at-talks-between-us-and-russian-officials-and-what-comes-next-4074843.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~GR.124~ED.346~
