While you're at it, why not speak of Petain and collaboration with Nazis? What is holding you back?
Why are you speaking of different times with a different government? And times when there was not at all the sense of climate crisis we have now?
The Macron government has been elected in the light of the AGW emergency (even if Macron is still trying to save the growth "en meme temps", but oh well).
The whole population, the mainstream politicians, and the media, have a total different mindset than at the time of the greenpeace ship bombing.
Not at all on a large scale. In France only one single plant is prepared to be restarted, among a lot of criticism from the population. This has nothing to do with "restarting coal" in a broad meaning.
> LNG
Lots of hesitation about that from the governments, too. Very criticized, but the rationale they are proposing is that the LNG infrastructure would be useful for hydrogen later (not my words), and that they are still doing the energy transition towards renewable, only it will not be done in time so they need the gas.
You see, the West (except some illiberal outsiders) is completely sure that the energy transition towards renewables is the solution.
The only variable is time, and whether the various populations are ready and willing to suffer during the first few winters or not.
> propaganda in the west
I'm sorry I think you are not seeing the reality: tons of diverse opinions in the West. But false claims are not just equal to true claims, in that fewer people believe them and fewer relay them. That is why most people are against fossil fuels, as they understand the mechanisms underlying AGW.
But on the other hand is there propaganda in India? Are the media free?
Is Modi an illiberal?
