Nuclear energy key to decarbonising Europe, says EESC

France isn't reliant on Rosatom at all for Uranium. Russia is one possible part of the supply chain mostly used for retreatment.

Most of the French uranium is produced by Orano which is quite close to being a public company (95% owned by France). It comes from Canada, Kazakhstan and Niger.

Greenpeace is not a reliable source when it comes to anything having to do with the nuclear industry by the way.
