I actually just took a class about science and international relations, and it's because nuclear power is regulated more than just about anything in the world. Except for a few hostile places like North Korea, every country that uses nuclear power is part of the Nonproliferation Treaty. This means that they have to allow the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) to inspect their nuclear facilities, both to make sure they aren't making bombs and to inspect all of the equipment for safety problems, from uranium buildup in the pipes to improperly stored nuclear waste.
@OP, we have plenty of immigrants here to balance that out, like one guy in my International Affairs class: "But why did you guys bomb us twice, wasn't once enough?!"
