Practical information
This conference aims at deeply analysing the recent evolution of the French Arab policy, with an emphasis on its orientations and new dynamisms, and its evolutions and breakings-off. It will include a study of the French policy towards the Middle-Eastern issues, towards the new developments in the Maghreb, as well as a part on the new outcomes about the israeli-palestinian conflict.
The contributions of the speakers will lead to an evaluation of the place, credibility and future of the policy on the international scene, facing both the traditional and new actors, and the state and non-state entities.
Please find attached the program of the seminar.

Nuclear Sharing in Europe: A Contested Policy That Endures
Since the end of the Cold War, the number of US nuclear weapons stationed in Europe has fallen more than seventy-fold, yet their presence in Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, and Turkey remains a quiet pillar of NATO's deterrence posture. This "nuclear sharing" arrangement, central to the Alliance since its founding, has long been contested by public opinion, political parties, and civil society across Europe, without ever being abandoned by host governments. This paradox lies at the heart of the seminar: why does such an unpopular policy persist?
