Abstract
The article discusses the features of the participation of the Federal Republic of Germany in the NATO nuclear deterrence system. The main attention is paid to two key levels of nuclear participation - technical, related to the deployment of American missiles at German air bases, and political, consisting of state cooperation in disarmament programs. The objectives and mechanisms of nuclear participation, the attitude of leading political parties to the problem of nuclear deterrence within NATO, including the content of coalition agreements and election programs are analyzed. It is noted that there are currently no operational reasons why there is still a need for military participation in nuclear deterrence. The conclusion is made about the predominantly political grounds for Germany's participation in NATO.
