Ukraine wants to produce own nuclear fuel
Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko said on January 13 that his country should produce its own nuclear fuel for its power plants, part of the Westward-leaning leader's effort to reduce its reliance on Russia for energy following a bitter dispute over natural gas prices.
”We must change our uranium policy — our policy on the use of uranium for peaceful purposes,” Yushchenko said on national television. ”We must cooperate with international allies on a serious political and economic level so that we can have a full cycle of processing and production of nuclear fuel.”
