"Jetzt müssen RWE und Co. die ausgedienten Gelddruckmaschinen sicher abwickeln."

But that was the well-known pro nuclear lobby group...greenpeace.

"Atomkraftwerke sind Gelddruckmaschinen."

But that was the well-known pro nuclear lobbyist...Jürgen Trittin

Anyway, you are just regurgitating the same old counter-factual nonsense as before, and the irrelevant "but China is also building renewables".

Once again: nuclear and renewables are only a contradiction in the minds of anti-nuclear advocates. Industrial nations do both.

> Plan to build 6 then 8 more EPR2 → "only a plan"

That is incorrect. As stated before, the approvals are being sought, 3 sites have been selected and multi-billion € contracts have been awarded.

> Sites have been selected for the first 6

> [engineering contracts] → long road ahead

Newsflash: yes, nuclear power plants are big.

Once again: if multi-billion contracts are "nothing", please give some of that "nothing". I will send you my bank details.

Apologies about pointing at Mitterand, that was incorrect. I meant Hollande.

You quote assertions. It doesn't proves anything about the nuclear industry. An indictment must specify who did what, when, and with what effect.

> the irrelevant "but China is also building renewables".

No, I state the fact: China is building WAY, WAY MORE renewables than nuclear.

> nuclear and renewables are only a contradiction in the minds of anti-nuclear advocates. Industrial nations do both.

They try to do nuclear (with meager effects) just like many of them do coal: inertia, political pressure...

>> Plan to build 6 then 8 more EPR2 → "only a plan"

> That is incorrect. As stated before, the approvals are being sought, 3 sites have been selected and multi-billion € contracts have been awarded.

Here, also, only acts prove anything. Everything started in 2022 and, 3 years later, only one site preparation project has begun.

>> Sites have been selected for the first 6

"Selected" is far from "nuclear-specific work is in order"!

> Apologies about pointing at Mitterand, that was incorrect. I meant Hollande.

Which action of F. Hollande did hurt the nuclear sector? Not a single one! No, not Fessenheim (French ahead, AFAIK a software translator does the job): https://sites.google.com/view/electricitedefrance/accueil#h....

The interviewee, Bernard Accoyer, does not make any specific accusations; it is a conspiracy theory. He is well-known for this in France.
