SNP plans to remove nuclear weapons, join NATO & EU without adopting the euro, and focus on global issues in independent Scotland.

The Scottish National Party (SNP) plans to remove nuclear weapons from an independent Scotland, aiming to join NATO and the European Union without adopting the euro as its official currency. The SNP's new policy paper also states that an independent Scotland would focus on contributing to global issues such as poverty, climate change, and human rights. However, critics argue that such a scenario would not offer significant financial contributions to NATO or the UN and that Scotland's proposed nuclear weapons ban would leave the country reliant on lease-back arrangements with the UK or NATO to maintain jobs and defence benefits.
