Germany to take part in French military nuclear exercise this year: Merz

Germany will take part in a French nuclear exercise later this year, Chancellor Friedrich Merz said Friday after both countries' governments held a joint meeting near Cologne.

"Germany and France are deepening their cooperation in defence, we are strengthening European deterrence," Merz said in a post on X, adding: "We will participate in a nuclear exercise of the French military by the end of this year."
