The discussion surrounding expanded U.S. nuclear sharing is meant to assuage fears in European capitals that they may be left to fend for themselves by their powerful treaty partner in Washington, the FT cited its sources as saying. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the discussions were ongoing, an agreement to expand U.S. nuclear hosting was not imminent, an unnamed source told the FT. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the discussions were ongoing, an agreement to expand U.S. nuclear hosting was not imminent, an unnamed source told the
