Nuclear energy has only contributed to 10% of electricity generation in Germany - not to the total energy supply. Furthermore, nuclear energy is far from being self-sufficient. Germany and France import (or imported) uranium from Russia. In quantities that Russia could not provide if it did not itself source uranium from other countries (which Germany, at least, decided not to import uranium from due to a self-imposed commitment). This adds to the dependency on Russia and other countries regarding the remainder of the nuclear fuel cycle.
Then there's coal, oil, and gas. Reducing these is the mammoth task in terms of energy self-sufficiency and independency. Nuclear was marginal at best. France will be a different (very problematic) story…
It was still over 12% in 2019 and over 14% in 2015 after shutting down plants since 2011.

Unfortunately, only the gross electricity generation. You should look on the original numbers destatis is referencing https://ag-energiebilanzen.de/
2022: 9.9%
The primary energy consumption of electricity from nuclear power was even lower.
That's electricity, not energy.
Most road transport, building heating and many industrial processes use energy that isn't electricity.
The post I was replying to said

That number isn't correct, which I pointed out. In both cases we were talking about electricity. I don't see the added value of your comment.
That number is correct.
