1. The CDU Party presented a draft plan to bring back nuke power. Odds of getting approval? It won't happen until an election occurs, and the Green Party is not part of the coalition gov't.
I'll just say....it's a long process. Even if approved in 2025....it could be five-plus years before such a plant is built. However, with new technology (the mini-plants)....I could see a dozen plants back in operation by 2035. Selling point? If you could bring down power costs by one-third....it'd help the economy.
2. The Interior Minister is developing a 'safe-countries' strategy to deport failed refugees. Key factor? Its developed in a way to avoid Green Party objections.
3. Axe attack on a Paris train...four wounded. Involves a fight that broke out. Police say one guy's hand was cut off.
4. Statistical number released....only around 2-percent of smokers in Germany use e-smokes.
5. Odd report this AM.....may be partial BS....but Russian 'agents' had some kind of plan to crash a German plane over at the Leipzig airport. More substance on the report expected today.
6. New banking ATM technology announced....explosive-proof ATM 'box'....weighing 18 tons. About the size of four refrigerators (with a door for entry). There is some belief that this is the path for the future....ATMs likely to be removed from banks/buildings....because of the continuing trend of blowing up the ATMs for robbery purposes.
