> Coincidentally (to the fact Germany is actively phasing out nuclear) Germany is the very country I would trust to run nuclear power plants without worry - every other nuclear-powered nation seems less good at quality and safety, the safety measures Germany applied seemed really good.
Could you expend on this? What are you basing this on? Germany has an international reputation of being competent and serious about safety, but that often feels more like a myth than reality IMHO. Pretty happy to live in the country, but it’s clear at this point the country failed to live to its reputation for the past 2 decades. Germany failed to maintain and develop almost all its large infrastructure projects.
Small anecdote: I live in Hamburg, one of the richest and most developed city (love the place btw, really underrated), I finally got fiber for my internet connection just a few months ago. And we are parts of the very lucky few!
I had fiber in my home country of Switzerland in 2010.
- qwerty456127 2y agoI don't mean the reputation of doing everything great which obviously is a myth. I am speaking specifically about the German nuclear installations safety standards.
- dgellow 2y agoUnderstood, and could you cite something in that regard? Or mention something a bit more specific
