France fears a nuclear war with Russia over German long-range missiles. FT.
Paris is demanding that Berlin clearly define the conditions for the use of long-range weapons against Russia, fearing that Moscow might see such an attack as a threat requiring a nuclear response. Germany, Great Britain, Poland and several Nordic and Baltic countries are purchasing land-based missiles with a range of about 2,000 km, capable of hitting targets deep inside Russian territory. "You can find yourself on the brink of nuclear war without even realizing it," warned a source in the Financial Times. Caravans: |.
