Thanks Russia.

Oh, it gets worse. Russia is big on nuclear, they have a whole agency that deals in nuclear in Europe, it’s called ROSATOM.

This is related to other post with the fossil-fuel sponsored ecomodernist girl whining about Greenpeace and nuclear:

Russia lobbied to have the EU include nuclear energy and fossil methane to be included in the “sustainable” taxonomy: https://www.greenpeace.de/publikationen/20220517-greenpeace-report-russland-taxonomie.pdf (PDF)

Russia has a good stranglehold on nuclear energy: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2023-02-14/russia-s-grip-on-nuclear-power-trade-is-only-getting-stronger and many European powers …compliant to that.

European Union nations are continuing to import and export nuclear fuel that is not under EU sanctions on Russia

Russia’s Grip on Nuclear-Power Trade Is Only Getting Stronger https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-nuclear-power-uranium-plants-europe-imports-germany-sanctions-ukraine-war/

New data show exports in the strategic industry jumped more than 20% last year, as long-term projects boost Russian influence.

Here’s an article in German: https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/unternehmen/uran-abhaengigkeit-russland-koennte-den-usa-noch-erhebliche-schmerzen-zufuegen-a-cad81a53-4704-4842-a641-1b6191e4add5

It’s even more complicated, but building nuclear now in Europe would mean more dependency on Russian nuclear fuel and nuclear tech.

This includes France, the nuclear postergirl:

French Nuclear Power Crisis Frustrates Europe’s Push to Quit Russian Energy https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/18/business/france-nuclear-power-russia.html

France typically exports electricity, but now it risks blackouts and a need for imported power because of problems at the state nuclear operator.

France accused of funding Putin’s war effort by buying his nuclear fuel https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2022/12/02/france-accused-aiding-putins-war-importing-russian-nuclear-fuel/

It’s not just complicated, with many limits, but the useless yammer of nuclear-fanboys is just using up air in discourse.

Building more nuclear will not help with with climate warming mitigation. And it has its own problems with climate, as France knows…
