Marine Le Pen is traveling to Brittany, to Saint-Brieuc on Friday, to come and support the fishermen who oppose the project to set up a wind farm off the coast. As part of her presidential campaign, the RN candidate intends to capitalize on the hostility towards wind power and promote nuclear power.
She poses as a protector of the coast. In Brittany, in Saint-Brieuc, the candidate of the National Rally Marine Le Pen came to support the fishermen who are fighting against the project of a future wind farm off the coast of the prefecture of Côtes d’Armor. “This wind farm will obviously be the first that I will stop if I am elected President of the Republic”, she promised, in a deep voice, to the fishermen as part of her presidential campaign.
An “ecological and economic absurdity”
“Once again, it’s an ecological, economic, strategic absurdity”, listed Marine Le Pen, who defends nuclear energy. The RN candidate criticized the low yield of this wind project, which mobilizes Breton fishermen. “I remind you all the same that the entirety of this field, which is the equivalent of 62 Montparnasse towers, will produce barely 15% of what nuclear produces”, she explained at the microphone of Europe 1.
Marine Le Pen also castigated a bad economic operation. “While the average nuclear electricity is between 45 and 47 euros, the electricity that will be produced will then be bought back for 155 euros. We are really in a process which is an absurdity”, declared the candidate of the National Rally.
