Musk is proposing to restart all dormant nuclear power plants in Europe.
“I hope it is now very clear that Europe should restart idle nuclear power plants and increase the capacity of existing ones. This is critical for national and international security,” Musk wrote in Twitter.

The SpaceX CEO believes that the risks from the operation of nuclear power plants are not as high as they seem and is ready to visit any “dangerous” place.
“For those who mistakenly think that this is a radiation risk, choose the worst place from this point of view. I will go there, eat local food and watch TV
I did this in Japan many years ago, shortly after Fukushima. The radiation risk is much, much lower than most people think,” Musk added.
For example, only in Germany there are 25 nuclear power plants, but only three of them are operating.
Previously, Musk supported Ukraine and provided our country with access to Starlink. But the American warned that his Internet could become the target of the occupiers.
