Hey the US sends plenty of LNG to Germany and others as well hahaha

I am curious to see if any of the nuclear plants in Germany try to do what the US is doing and restart em. When you do that you essentially replace all the guts anyways so a ton of the power plant is brand new.

I think it's in Norway's benefit to only have the economic agreements. I lived through the transition from Economic Union to Political Union in the EU, and honestly, it hasn't gotten better for the net payers. Brexit mess shows that you don't want to go in and then leave again - that's a self-own.
