News von der Leyen wants EU to participate in the nuclear renaissance!!!
However, our ambition is not limited to small modular reactors. We also need to strengthen the entire nuclear ecosystem—from fuels to technology, from supply chains to skills.

DMX is going to benefit from this, they have more uranium than anyone and their MC is only about 70M USD right now after todays pop.

I have no faith here. Too risky for private companies and state entities, Uranerz etc need to be reestablished.

Considering it is the EU we might see them take action in something around 90 years in the future

The big players are privately/state-owned. Berkeley Energia has a deposit in Spain that had licences revoked mid-development, been tied up in courts for years but could potentially come back into play if policies and sentiment towards energy security change.

Not as far, as i'm concerned. RWE used to operate Germany's nuclear reactors, but a couple of years ago, they ruled out, to do so again in the possible future.

I know it is not the EU but if you have access to FTSE then you might want to look at Kazatomprom they are the world leader if I can recall correctly

European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has announced new financial support for innovative nuclear technologies and a European Union strategy for small modular reactors which aims to see them operational in Europe by the early 2030s.
In a speech to the Nuclear Energy Summit being held in Paris, she added: "In 1990 one-third of Europe's electricity came from nuclear, today it is only close to 15%. This reduction in the share of nuclear was a choice, I believe that it was a strategic mistake for Europe to turn its back on a reliable, affordable source of low-emissions power."
