‘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~

King Charles III opened Canada’s new parliamentary session with a rare “speech from the throne”—only the third such address by a reigning monarch in Canadian history. In a powerful and symbolic gesture, the King began with a land acknowledgement, honoring the Algonquin and Anishinaabeg peoples, and called for deeper understanding and action on truth and reconciliation. It was his 20th visit to Canada, but his first as King. The ceremony blended Commonwealth traditions with Indigenous representation unique to Canada’s identity. #KingCharles #CanadaParliament #SpeechFromTheThrone #TruthAndReconciliation #IndigenousPeoples #LandAcknowledgement #Commonwealth #RoyalVisit #Anishinaabeg #FirstNations #SenateChamber #CanadianHistory #RoyalFamily #QueenCamilla #MarySimon #IndigenousVoices #RCMP #CanadianMilitary #MarkCarney #MonarchyInCanada #ReconciliationNow #BritishMonarchy #InuitVoices #Métis #RoyalCeremony #BlackRod #GovernorGeneral #ThroneSpeech2025 #CanadaRoyalVisit #CrownInCanada #HistoricMoment Also Read King Charles Now As Rich As Sunak And Murty—Inside His £640 Million Wealth :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/king-charles-now-as-rich-as-sunak-and-murty-inside-his-640-million-wealth-4156711.html?ref=DMDesc King Charles III Briefly Hospitalised For Observation Following Side Effects From Cancer Treatment :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/king-charles-iii-briefly-hospitalised-for-observation-following-side-effects-from-cancer-treatment-4107317.html?ref=DMDesc King Charles III Celebrates Healthcare Workers in Heartfelt Christmas Message Amid Royal Illnesses :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/king-charles-iii-christmas-message-healthcare-workers-011-4025931.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~PR.152~ED.346~GR.122~
