Åkesson on the election promise: Probably won’t be a restart of Ringhals

There are different opinions within the Tidö parties about the restart of Ringhals 1 and 2. In the election campaign, the Sweden Democrats pushed for an investigation into whether the nuclear power reactors could be restarted quickly. KD leader Ebba Busch has said after the election that a restart would be both expensive and stupid.

In SVT’s 30 minutes, Jimmie Åkesson says that he is certain that at least one of the reactors had been restarted. But that probably won’t happen.

Shall focus on new nuclear power

– I have not let go of the issue, but it is clear that the other parties in the government document have changed their minds and made other priorities. I still think it would have been the fastest way, says Jimmie Åkesson in 30 minutes.

According to Åkesson, what they are focusing on right now is how quickly they can get new nuclear power in place in Sweden.
