Because that's what's happening. Countries are building and reopening fossil fuel plants.
In 20 years that reactor can make up for thousands of tons a year of CO2. That's the same argument people have been using for 60 years, and here we are now. That it takes time is no excuse not to start.
Which country? Country's are investing in renewables you know the energy source that's cheaper and quicker to deploy than nuclear.
Nuclear is bad for your grid it's not flexible. Look at Germany since they stopped using nuclear they where able to use way more solar and wind which previously had to be turned off because nuclear is not flexible.
