They're highly complicit in Israel's actions.
Germany has great PR, it plays itself as such a progressive nation free of hate or want. It’s bullshit when you look beyond the surface
They also ditched nuclear energy and stayed over reliant on russian fossil fuel, funding the Russian war machine
The nuclear rods in Europe are mainly made with Uranium from Kazakhstan processed in Russia.
The German failure was not expanding renewables. Getting out of nuclear energy is geopolitically and financially sound.
Not when coal and gas fill the void. They can get fuel rods from France, Canada, China. Hell Germany could just refine their own, Niger is looking for trading partners.
France works together with Russia in the nuclear industry.

Also in 2023 none of the European supply came from China. Almost half came from Russia/Kazakhstan
The relationship with Niger is fragile, since Niger kicked out the remaining French troops from France post-colonial presence in West Africa. It seems Niger is instead looking towards Canada.

And this only represents principal availability, without looking at the costs.
France was forcing Niger to give up its resources for a fraction of market value while keeping them from developing industry. Buy their product at a fair market value, or even better: follow China's mutual development strategy and provide funds and experts to build a refinery.
China doesnt mine much uranium, but they do fabricated fuel pellets with ore from Kazakhstan.
These nuclear energy zealots are spilling over from r/europe with the same stupid arguments
Nuclear energy was the answer between like 1950 and 2010. But the fact that China isnt going all in on nuclear despite having optimal conditions; central planning allows them to predict maximum prices for materials and labor available 5-10 years in advance, the scale allows them to produce reactors more efficiently with better investment in tooling than any other country, and being the workshop of the world ensures higher demand than any other country. They are at <5% nuclear right now and expect <10% by 2035.
Now we're funding the US regime war machine after they blew up NS2 and 'sanctions'.
Paying extortion prices for dirty US fracking gas that make companies uncompetitive and causing the economy to collapse.
The US leeches always profit from war, same as in WW2.
Always on the wrong side of history.
Not a coincidence that fascism and zionism are twins
