Remove the American market, and force deterrent from Europe, see whom the reinvigorated bear bites in the ass first.

We have our own nuclear weapons, so do the french because there was always the possibility that the US would not want to get involved in another european conflict. Odds are we will let out die away rather than replace them, the french will probably keep theirs. I would worry more about China and the pacific. Looks like they are becoming more assertive and interested in foreign affairs. What will yoou do when they decide to take Taiwan? There are new markets opening up in europe and China and our trade with them is growing rapidly, the american one is likely to decline in importance as time goes on.
Interesting though, George Orwell 1984 had the world in three economic blocs.
