What revival? If there is one thing thats consistent in European politics, its France focusing on nuclear.
If there will be anything resembling a revival, it will be a market breakthrough of SMR. Currently, it looks like either the US or China will be first to achieve that.

That’s all good. But France uses Russia services for fuel enrichment. And buys majority of fuel from russian allies (Khasachstan and Niger). So much for energy independence.
