I don't think they are doing that anymore? I think they've seen the Germans embarrass themselves and are realizing nuclear is actually good.

Nuclear requires time to build and expertise to maintain. You can't correct decades of bad policy instantly, even if you have the will to do so (which Macron doesn't).

Well I am saying they are no longer trying to phase out, even if they haven't yet succeeded in phasing back in (e.g. getting all the broken plants back open).
