Yep, and that leads to the same problems we are seeing on the European continent today - a lack of strategic autonomy leading to a lack of defensibility. If a country like Germany or Poland wants to build a credible nuclear program that actually has deterrence, then they would need a completely domestically supply chain and vendor for most of their delivery systems, because poltical winds change, and despite the current alignment over Ukraine, countries like France, Germany, and Poland continue to clash over foreign and economic policy (eg. Germany undermining the next-gen tank deal for France, France undermining Eurofighter to protect Dassault, Poland directly opposing sending troops to Ukraine despite France pushing to start a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine). And this is one of the various reasons why Germany and Poland have not seriously considered a nuclear program during the current defense rush.
