...it has been overlooked that since the Russian company purchased the controlling interest in that CANADIAN mining company, NOT A SINGLE OUNCE OF URANIUM from their mines has been shipped to Russia. It has always been part of the agreement with that company that ALL of the Uranium taken from any of the company's mines in the US, that that ore remain under the absolute control of the United States. The only benefit gained by the Russian company, and their investors, is the profit on the sale of that ore. Now the last time I checked, the GOP still believed in capitalism so what's the problem here?
Below is an excerpt from the article below:
In a June 2015 letter to Rep. Peter Visclosky, the NRC said it granted RSB Logistics Services an amendment to its export license in 2012 to allow the Kentucky shipping company to export uranium to Canada from various sources — including from a Uranium One site in Wyoming. The NRC said that the export license allowed RSB to ship uranium to a conversion plant in Canada and then back to the United States for further processing.
Canada must obtain U.S. approval to transfer any U.S. uranium to any country other than the United States, the letter says.
“Please be assured that no Uranium One, Inc.-produced uranium has been shipped directly to Russia and the U.S. Government has not authorized any country to re-transfer U.S. uranium to Russia,” the 2015 letter said.
“That 2015 statement remains true today,” David McIntyre, a spokesman for the NRC, told us in an email.
