If the West really is serious about not allowing anyone else to have nukes, then that's the only morally sound position to take.
No one in the west is willing to do that though. So we have a situation where we are telling other countries to get in their place, as they can't be trusted, but we can.
That's never going to fly with vast chunks of the world and it effectively condemns us to endless terrorism.
Endless terrorism means an excuse to tighten the controls ever further on the people. Thus it's not exactly a bad thing for government that wants to implement fascism.
Seeing as the EU is about post democratic governance and it's implementation, I am pretty confident they won't be to upset at the thought of endless terror to further their objectives.
