EXCERPT:
LONDON, June 2. /TASS/. The United States is considering deploying additional nuclear weapons in European countries to reassure their allies in the reliability of its security guarantees, the Financial Times reported, citing sources.
According to them, Washington has signaled readiness to deploy its dual-capable aircraft (DCA) in additional European NATO countries. The talks may not lead to any changes in nuclear-sharing agreements, as the administration of US President Donald Trump intends to show commitment to providing a nuclear umbrella to its NATO allies amid widespread concern in Europe over US moves to remove military assistance from the continent, the British newspaper said.
