More so as it smells of politics. Germany was a thorn in Frances plans to label Nuclear green for while and does seem they wore down everybody and got thru a compromise that gets them off the hook by including gas. More worrying in this is how will this play into the whole gas drama with Russia.

Overall, it avoids a lot of awkward moments which would of seen both Germany and France fall short upon the EU's green regulations for energy usage/production. Whilst personally I feel it is a fair thing and well needed for France, I can't help feel that Germany took advantage of this and tailcoated their needs onto this and why we see gas labeled as `green`.
