ČRo Plus | First World Nuclear Energy Summit in Belgium

The first Nuclear Energy Summit was held in Belgium with over 40 countries in attendance. Their deputies discussed the future of nuclear energy, not only in Europe, but also worldwide. Žiga Faktor, head of EUROPEUM's Brussels office, commented on the conclusion of this event in Brussels for Czech Radio Plus.

"There is still no concrete consensus on a position on nuclear energy, not even in Europe. But this summit shows us that the issue of energy security and global competitiveness is something Europe wants to address. And also that at least half of the EU member states find a consensus that nuclear energy will be a key aspect to ensure energy security."
