      That’s why France 's De Gaulle wanted its own bomb in the first place: he was convinced the US would not risk mutual annihilation if the USSR really invaded western Europe. See also how shy the west has been shy with supplying Ukraine because Russia kept threatening to use a nuke in the area.

      France nuke’s umbrella for Greenland would be but a PR op only. Neither Macron nor anyone after him would ever nuke the US over Greenland.
