Italian parliament votes for return to nuclear energy

Italy's parliament has approved a law paving the way for the country's return to nuclear power, decades after Italy abandoned it following referendums influenced by the 1986 Chernobyl disaster. The move would allow new nuclear technology to be developed or adopted, reversing a long-standing ban. Supporters frame it as key to energy security and climate goals, while critics recall Italy's anti-nuclear history.

Why now: Italy reversing its decades-old nuclear phase-out is a major energy policy shift with European relevance
