Söder's suggestion to involve Germany in foreign nuclear projects faces backlash for misunderstanding the European energy market.

  • CSU leader Markus Söder proposed German involvement in foreign nuclear power to reduce energy costs, sparking criticism from the FDP.
  • FDP energy expert Lukas Köhler labeled Söder's proposal as absurd, citing a lack of understanding of the European electricity market.
  • Söder suggested partnerships with France and the Czech Republic, questioning the shutdown of Germany's last nuclear plants.
