The title is highly misleading, it's fuel rods for MAYBE one of the three reactors until the year end. The spokesperson is also a spokesperson of a company that took all the nuclear reactors from major energy companies into their portfolio to decommission them. The interviews he took as proof for the lying were also given before the TÜV assured them that ONE of the THREE reactors could run until 06.23 without recertification. The author also did a 180 on climate change and is now a full conspiracy nutjob. Here is the real statement of the ministry WITH the nuclear experts from all energy companies.

But he doesn't actually believe any of it, which makes it worse.

    Paid by whom? And how do you know what anyone actually believes?
