Summary/Abstract: RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The scientific objective of the article is to examine the possibility of establishing a European nuclear deterrent system based on French-British nuclear capabilities. RESEARCH RESULTS: The research has identified factors that limit the implementation of a European autonomous nuclear deterrent system that would be as credible as the American one. CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS: The analysis has proven that the prospects for the development of European nuclear deterrence based on French–British capabilities are illusory in the short term.
