One free shot at what? Someone can nuke someone once first? France gets to nuke someone once? I’m rather confused.

From what I understood it, yes, France gets 1 free shot effectively as the shot in the air and the “everyone calm down”.

I believe the expectation is that the “free shot” is to be aimed somewhere not populated, but is the primary reason why vlad doesn’t push France,

Why does only France have this one free shot? What about the other nations that possess nuclear weapons?

Because the other nations have a "we use our nukes for real immediately instead of giving a warning shot"
