Jet fighters armed with nuclear weapons could be posted to Germany as Emmanuel Macron discusses Ukraine’s defence with Donald Trump

Few years ago Germany chose to get F35 over the Rafale, with the main argument the F35 can deliver American nuclear bombs. I found it regrettable back then they chose the American system over a European one that seems to have fairly comparable capabilities.
I’m sure they did that because the ~10-15 nukes stored somewhere in German are of USA origin. The USA might still stored some more in their airbase in Ramstein.
Are the Rafale’s weapon mounts and system compatible with American nukes? I wouldn’t expect that.
