What do you mean by Nuclear energy in Europe being a foreign energy source? I'm not aware of any state importing electricity from a neighbouring country.

The fuel, of course.

You don't import electricity generated by power plants buring imported gas or coal, either...

Gas and Coal are ready to use energy vectors once they are above ground. Uranium mining is just a small part of the Nuclear electricity generation process, that doesn't produce energy, just rocks.

I ask again: so what? It is essential, it stores the energy to be used, and it is imported 100%, that's all what counts when you say "internal energy source".
