"On board the multifunctional frigate Auvergne, I witnessed the first launch of the new M51.3 ballistic missile from the nuclear-powered submarine Le Vigilant, fitted with ballistic missiles. Very few countries possess such expertise. This technical success represents further evidence of the credibility of our deterrent force, the durability of which is assured. To be free, one must be feared. And to be feared, one must be strong." The test comes in an increasingly tense context in Europe, with Emmanuel Macron warning about a change in the nature of "Russian aggression and threats" against European countries following a series of "hybrid" attacks attributed to Moscow. #Franța #EmmanuelMacron #RachetăNucleară (translated)

Emmanuel Macron indicated that he attended, aboard the multi-mission frigate Auvergne, the first launch of the new M51.3 ballistic missile from the nuclear submarine Le Vigilant. He estimated that very few nations possessed such expertise and congratulated the DGA, CEA, Ariane Group, Naval Group, and the French Navy for their contribution. He presented this technical success as a new demonstration of the credibility of French deterrence and asserted that it protected and would continue to protect the country. According to him, freedom required being feared, which implied being powerful. Macron added that he had initiated, as early as 2017, the renewal of military capabilities for the decades to come. He indicated that the military budget would have doubled in ten years, that future strategic submarines were under construction, and that the program for hypersonic and maneuverable strategic missiles intended for the air component of deterrence had been launched this year. #DissuasionNucléaire #ArméeFrançaise #SécuritéNationale (translated)
