Comment on France's left-wing presidential candidate has opinions on GTA 6 and the discless PlayStation fiasco
BaraCoded@literature.cafe 22 hours agoI partially agree with you, France needs energetic sovereignty, and France needs that energy to be clean, preferably renewable (actually, every country should have access to clean, renewable energy), which would be ideal if everything ran on electricity instead of gaz and oil, which is not the case at the moment.

Personal traffic is currently shifted to electricity, so is home heating. Heavy rood traffic is currently the implementation of vehicles that can cover everything up to mid range. China is already getting into transition in that market too. Europe would be irresponsible not to follow.
What is left is rather small in volume. Making oneself reliant on an openly hostile Russian dictatorship which won’t waste a second to use that dependency as a weapon against France or Europe, is not necessay than anymore.

On that, I completely agree with you. Unfortunately, France isn’t ready for that transition thanks to our collaborationist leaders, and has to face stuff like that :

This has absolutely nothing to do with wind power in France. The US pays a French company a lot of money to not build wind power in the US. Not France’s or Europe’s strategic problem.
France has massively increased renewable sources and is also in good position regarding EV transition.
No matter how you turn it, there is no reason to make oneself dependent on gas or oil from an openly hostile dictatorship in Moscow.

I definitely hope we don’t have to become dependant from an eastern or western fascist, buddy
