German here. Accurate description if you ask me. It's one of the dumbest and most irrational decisions ever made in energy politics. It's completely inexcusable.

- starbugs 3y agoRight. I should have mentioned that Germany should have decided to ramp up investments in nuclear power as well. A long time ago. My bad.
