France was the right country to represent the EU since they are much less dependent on Gazprom than, say, Germany. Why? Their civilian nuclear power plants. Germany’s Greens intended to shut down their nukes and rely (ha!) on wind power – sounds 5th column-ish to me.

One expected outcome is lots on new orders for nuclear power plants from Germany, Poland, the Balts. Finland already saw this coming and has one under construction and another one under consideration.

The Europeans should have listened to Reagan when he recommended avoiding depending on a Gazprom pipeline.

Now guess what? California is setting itself up to be dependent on Russian LNG to keep the lights on! What fools our state government is.
