“Germany pushes windmills and solar and as a result ends up dependent on natural gas from Russia and electricity from French nuclear power plants for their baseload power needs. Only a rich country can afford to be so stupid.”
“Yet it should be emphasized that unlike the Germans, France remains committed to nuclear power….”
