A company linked to Russia is set to help continue the work of a major nuclear project operating in Germany.
A joint venture between a French and Russian-linked company is set to enable a nuclear fuel rod manufacturer in Germany to keep operating, reports on Thursday have said.
The announcement is a little embarrassing for the country’s government, which has been steadfast in its claims that it can use Western green energy to end its reliance on Russian energy imports, mainly gas and oil on which Germany made itself so reliant after the Cold War., such a claim does not appear to have proven true for nuclear power at least, with officials seemingly deeming Russian involvement in the ANF fuel rod plant in Lingen a necessary evil.
Although a previous plan for a Russia-linked firm to support the plant reportedly fell through last year, it has now been confirmed that a joint venture between a French nuclear firm and another company owned by Russian state-owned energy firm Rosatom will be responsible for keeping production going.
The news has greatly angered Green party officials within the country, who have demanded the end of both Russian involvement in Germany, as well as the European country’s links to nuclear power. “Doing business with Putin should be ended,” the Greens’ Lower Saxony energy minister Christian Meyer remarked, describing the deal as being toxic.
