Do you buy in to the narrative that the Russians (via operatives pushing the ESG agenda) duped the Germans to ditch nuclear for renewable energy or was this a self-inflicted wound?
germany's exit from nuclear power is a singularity in the geopolitical field. and the exit is entirely due to germany's party history which is somewhat different from other european states. the green party is the centerpiece of the davos agenda and has traced its entire founding myth, which in germany tends to always be a left-leaning party system, back to the exit from nuclear power. that is their main narrative.
In the long term, Russia will once again be the most important supplier of gas and will also earn money either way from the transfer of resources from Russia to Central Europe, be it in the area of nuclear power, gas power or the development of renewable energies, which are also very resource-dependent.

I think that one clever (as in evil genius) that the Davis types have done is to simultaneously push the green agenda alongside the DEI narrative. This helps them counter reasonable push-back against excessive immigration as racist. Similarly, when the green agenda is challenged they dismiss it as ‘anti-science’.
The opposition is either controlled or sidelined. It’s tough for reasonable people to operate let alone remain optimistic.
