French finance minister Bruno Le Maire said during a meeting with US climate change envoy John Kerry that nuclear energy should continue to plan a key role in low-carbon power generation.

He said it was important to open discussions with the US on carbon border tax adjustments, and to avoid importing CO2 emissions from countries that do not respect climate issues in their production processes.
