Green parties everywhere tend to be anti nuclear unfortunately.

Thankfully, the Finnish Greens have seen reason: https://www.palladiummag.com/2022/10/28/how-finlands-green-p...
Hopefully it's the start of a trend

At least in France the trend hasn't come, the French Greens (EELV) are still anti-nuclear, as confirmed by their latest party congress a few months ago and their recent vehement fear mongering campaign ("brutal return towards a radioactive future" [0]). What's even worse is that their position has been adopted by the left-wing coalition as a whole, and when questioned on this some Green politicians have decided to turn it into a class/race issue (i quote, "maybe only white urban engineers from the high classes care about the energy mix"[1]).
Meanwhile EPRs, developed by a French company, are (finally) starting to come online which means next deployments will have learned lots of valuable lessons and thus be faster and cheaper.
