Italian parliament

Italy's parliament has approved a law paving the way for the country's return to nuclear power, more than three decades after Italians voted to shut down the country's nuclear plants following the 1987 Chernobyl disaster. The move would allow new nuclear facilities and advanced reactor projects as Italy seeks reliable low-carbon energy, but it reopens a debate many Italians remember vividly from the Chernobyl era and earlier referendums.
