It was built to transport cargo through the Alps to reduce the amount of heavy trucks. Germany refuses to build their part of this project, there is not enough infrastructure to load the cargo and there is no economic incentive to do so. At least the tunnel is built, maybe it will be used to its potential sometimes in the (far) future...
This is pointless show politics by shitty right-wingers. This will be appealed to the ECJ and there is no chance to deport to Afghanistan. All in all, a waste of time and money.
Who the fuck cares about nuclear. Renewables are the future...
