ポーランドがさまざまな障害を乗り越えられるとしても、核兵器を開発・製造するのに一体何年かかるのだろうか？ドイツよりもフランスの核兵器を受け入れやすいポーランドが、ASMPを搭載するフランスのラファール飛行隊を自国内に展開するための航空基地新設や空中給油機の新規に導入するなどが現実的な路線じゃないだろうか？先日のA330 MRTT導入打診を考えると、まずはやはりフランスの核抑止力を各国に展開しやすい環境を整えるべきだと思う。何も欧州諸国全てが核武装、大陸軍の編成、アルマダを創設する必要はなく、適材適所を強くすればいい。
ここからは完全な推測だけど報復能力はフランスのSLBMに依存して、より細かくエスカレーションラダーを刻むための戦術核・低出力核の開発・運用はポーランドが担うという分担なのかもしれない。イギリスの核兵器は半分アメリカの管理下なのでアメリカが実質敵国になりつつある現状では頼れず、本来欧州第三の核保有国にふさわしいドイツは国内の反核感情を考えると早期の核戦力整備は難しい、ある意味消去法的に国力技術力的に核開発ができるくらい大きくて国内政治的に反対が少なそうな国として選択されたのかね>ポーランド

The building blocks of European defense are the national capabilities.
I don't see a whole of Europe approach as likely, nor a viable alternative, but instead that like-minded countries come together forming blocks, coordinating plans, investing together when possible.

Some thoughts from Brussels. Europe is awoken and believes America is all but gone. As such huge efforts on defense funding from EU, Germany, and others. This is real. BUT...
Europe is still not reckoning yet with its major structural security problem: No one does European defense. 1/
