Poland is (i) a pretty poor country compared to Germany, (ii) does not present itself as the “obviously right way forward”, (iii) didn't close perfectly working nuke plants to please the Grüne, (iv) does not actively lobby with all its might against nuclear power in each and every single EU instance, (v) produces ~5× more electricity than Poland for ~2.7× the population, so they are obviously more impactful.
> they're on the good side of the American nuclear power lobby and get relatively little stick.
I'm French, I don't care about American nuke power lobby – and frankly, given the pitiful state of electricity CO2/kWh in the US and how much coal is burned, it seems that this lobby must not wield that much influence.

The nuclear lobby couldn't give a damn about the environment and neither does their supporters.
