Report: US Mulls Expanding Nuclear Presence in NATO
The United States is seeking to expand the deployment of its nuclear weapons within NATO countries, as secret discussions are underway to consider the possibility of deploying aircraft capable of carrying nuclear warheads in Eastern European countries such as Poland and the Baltic states. This move aims to strengthen the security guarantees for allies amid increasing tensions with Russia, with six European countries currently participating in the "nuclear sharing" program.

Meanwhile, these developments have raised concerns among allies about a potential decline in traditional defensive capabilities.
