Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever:

“The EU’s green energy policies make it impossible to provide for our own energy needs, make it impossible to mine for rare minerals in Europe…..we’ve made dogmatic choices against nuclear energy which was the stupidity of the century.”

He wasn’t done fuming. In response to demands by green energy executives for mandates he said:

“That’s when I started to feel like I was in the Soviet Union. If politicians have to create markets, that usually means subsidies without end….”

“The de-carbonisation of Europe risks becoming synonymous with the de-industrialisation of Europe” he warned, noting several European industries are relocating abroad.”

When the prime minister of the nation that hosts the European Union is so openly contemptuous of its policies, the revolt against its bureaucracy is right at its gates.
