Not to be disrespectful to the Germans who are suffering, but maybe now they will not support coal power plants.
What support? Merz and Reiche don't count.
Germany reopened coal mines cause it was too scared of alternatives like nuclear. To me that's like stabing yourself with a knife cause you are afraid of a bug bite
To me, your take is completely uninformed, so allow me to enlighten you. When Russia attacked Ukraine, oil prices spiked and conservative media were trying to cause a panic that Germany hadn't enough natutal gas to get through the winter Tangent: The natural gas levels are much lower today than they ever were 2022, but because we now have a conservative government, conservative media doesn't care. Anyways, because the start of the Ukraine war was such a volatile time and to assuage any fears, the last covernment decided to give the last 3 operational nuclear power plants a 6 month extension and to bring back coal power plants as backup. And that is what they ever where. A backup. And building nuclear power takes decades and costs billions. They help neither in the short-, nor long-term.

Very much detailed and to the point. Thanks for taking your time against false information matey ❤️
That was 2023 to prevent an energy crisis triggered by the russian invasion in Ukraine and these coal plants (not mines!) were already shut down again.
And nuclear is not an alternative.
