France Nuclear Weapons Euro-Atlantic Security

ELN members Bernard Norlain and Paul Quilès, together with defence analyst Jean-Marie Collin have published the book “Stop the bomb” (Arrêtez la bombe).

The book presents the cost of France’ nuclear weapon programme and provides solutions for a new French policy towards a world without nuclear weapon.

With the book, the authors set out to stimulate a  French public debate about the relevance and the value of nuclear weapons against 21st century security challenges and in times of financial austerity.
