Since the Czech government announced the construction of new nuclear reactors, many people in the border region have been worried. And call on the state government to find out about the plans from neighbors.
Toni Schuberl from the Green Party puts it drastically: “The Bavarian Forest would be in the death zone.” But his colleagues from the CSU in Lower Bavaria and Upper Palatinate are also worried about security. Not far from them, in Temelin, 80 kilometers away in the Czech Republic, two new nuclear reactors are to be built. The Czech government recently announced this. And since then, new fears have been felt on the Bavarian border with the Czech Republic.
