Lionel Robert Jospin is a French politician who was Prime Minister of France from 1997 to 2002.
Activities
In June 1997, newly appointed Prime Minister Jospin cancelled the Superphénix nuclear research project, formally due to cost overruns.The nuclear power station prototype was a 1,242 MWe fast breeder reactor with the twin goals of reprocessing nuclear fuel from France's line of conventional nuclear reactors, while also being an economical generator of power on its own. Despite many technical issues related to being a first-of-a-kind project most of its downtime was caused by administrative procedure: the plant was technically capable of resuming operations but was forbidden to do so.[1]
The closure set French nuclear research back, where it had decades of advantage over its competitors, and might have been part of "the Secret War against France", the US (and later supranational) deep state's campaign to crush French economic independence.
