That's a nice economy you've got there, it'd be a real shame if anything happened to it. (lemmy.ml)

France officially declared that nuclear plants have been stopped for maintenance, not for lack of water in the rivers (I will check this). Regarding the US , remember that immediately after the invasion, they offered zelensky protection suggesting him to fly away from the war zone to refuge himself in the US. This is what news said here at least.

That Zelensky news story is how I heard it here, too, but I don't see how that should have convinced us other than maybe showing that other wealthy nations are offering help, so we should be helping, too.

In regards to France, the way I heard it, is that they had to shut down some reactors for maintenance, but then also had to have the remaining reactors operate at low capacity, since they would have otherwise overheated the little water that was still running through the rivers.

I don't know what would be an authorative news source on this, mine is this German article: https://www.heise.de/tp/features/Krisenstab-eingesetzt-Atomdesaster-in-Frankreich-nimmt-seinen-Lauf-7205304.html
That is one of the most renown tech news agencies in Germany, so I'm willing to believe it.
