The west already built nuclear, but that era is mostly over. Two thirds of the world’s nuclear power capacity is in the west, with the USA far ahead of any country (with double the nuclear output of China). Even if all of the reactors being built around the world today are completed, overall nuclear power use will decline, as plants from the enormous construction boom of the 1970s-1980s reach the end of their life and are not replaced.
