The big problem is that the western nations are overconsuming by a lot. The current state is basically: "We cannot allow those poor countries to raise their standard of living", because nobody wants to talk about the necessity of scaling down.
I am personally not d'accord with a policy that involves an abandonment of billions of people because the global elite doesn't want to scale down their obscene lifestyles. We are basically condemning them to die..

Fun fact: Nuclear power is ~3 times as expensive as renewables
And it takes a lot longer to build, in fact decades which we don't have time for.

All of your statements need sources.
Olkiluoto 3 was built by Framatom and Siemens, who consistently built new fission reactors in the last decades. You can't say there is no expertise.. Maybe some russian company can pump out reactors which then don't comply with EU or US safety regulations, so that doesn't help anyone..
Also the cost of energy storage is included, so your whole point about energy not being available is wrong.
