Having solved all crime in the country, French police can afford to send in massive forces to unchain an activist from rail tracks:
About 30 French police removed a Greenpeace activist who chained himself to railway tracks to block the export of uranium to Russia. But the train was able to travel from a factory run by the nuclear giant Areva to the northern port of Cherbourg where the cargo is to be loaded onto a ship headed for Russia.Defending nuclear energy as environmentally safe, Areva chairman Anne Lauvergeon said: “Nuclear energy does not produce CO2 gas. This is truly the way to fight climate change. This demonstrates that Greenpeace is fighting the wrong battle.”
It’s not clear what those 30 policemen’s next task was. Probably helping an old lady cross the street.
