Also, if you join all the countries together and some are nuclear armed countries and others are not, aren't you breaking nuclear proliferation by arming other countries with nukes since you're sharing militaries?

Since Brexit, France is the only EU country with nuclear weapons.

We have often had some of our nukes stationed in Germany, Italy, and Turkey which have been at the disposal of NATO. But they are still our nukes.

Frankly, I think the EU needs a unified armed forces.... solely because Russia is so much against it and has been acting like asshats during the past decade.
