NATO allies are still considering a number of options for adjusting remaining nuclear forces following the INF agreement. Amongst these options is the possible deployment to Europe, including the United Kingdom, of additional longer-range dual-capable aircraft from the United States. However, no decision have yet been taken.

71. Mr. Wareing

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence what proposals have been made for additional nuclear weapons to be based in the United Kingdom.
