Safety arguments aside, the main sources of uranium are outside of Europe, which means dependence on countries that we have weaker treaties with. While not the end of the world, it really doesn't fit the path to energy independence.

Which is a lie. I.e. Czech Republic is on the same place with available uranium as Kuwait is with oil.

Not really. There's enough uranium in Sweden to cover this. It's just not something we care about since nuclear isn't big enough.
