Fears are growing about the safety of nuclear technology destined for a reactor in France. At Flamanville, a new third generation reactor is supposed to be activated in 2012, but tests have been deemed unsatisfactory by France's nuclear safety authority. This has fuelled debate on the future of nuclear energy, as France hopes to sell third generation reactors around the world.

Guests:

  • Bruno Comby, President of ISN, Environmentalist for Nuclear Energy
  • Steven Mitchell, Spokesman, Organization « Sortir du nucléaire »

Programme produced by Aurélien Aeberhard & Laura Farrenq
