Faced with the energy crisis, Olivier Marleix, president of the Les Républicains (LR) group in the National Assembly, wants a parliamentary commission of inquiry to identify those responsible for the nuclear “disaster”. “I would like François Hollande to come before this commission of inquiry,” said the deputy for Eure-et-Loir, guest of Europe Matin on Wednesday.
Who are the responsibles ?
Faced with rising energy prices and potential cuts this winter, the government wants to be cautious and calls on the French not to exceed 19 degrees to heat their homes. “For a great power that thought it had, thanks to General de Gaulle, independence and abundance in energy, it’s quite amazing,” he said on Europe 1.
“On the question of energy and nuclear power, the Republicans are the only political formation, for 20 years, 30 years, which have never given up, we have not given in to political correctness”, he said. for follow-up. “Nicolas Sarkozy is still the one who launched the EPRs, the Flamanville site, those who made bad decisions, which caused France to lose its independence, must bear the consequences”, exclaimed Olivier Marleix.
For several years, the president of the LR group in the National Assembly has denounced the “cutting up of the nuclear and energy industry in France”. “How could we saturate the public space with this idea that we had to drop nuclear power, that it was the past, when all the countries around us were launching nuclear projects”, he wondered. interrogates.
For the boss of the LR deputies, there are undoubtedly those responsible. “President Hollande is still behind an agreement between the Greens and the Socialist Party to close 24 nuclear reactors,” he continued. “The law still provides for the closure of 12 nuclear reactors”. A regrettable decision for the deputy of Eure-et-Loir who wants the executive to put an end to the nuclear cap.
