Kazakhstan’s National Atomic Company Kazatomprom has issued a statement following US Presidents Donald J. Trump’s decision to leave the current US uranium market unchanged.

“We welcome President Trump’s decision to decline the pursuit of restrictive trade actions on imports of uranium,” Kazatomprom CEO Galymzhan Pirmatov said.

“Kazatomprom reiterates its long-held belief that intervention in any form is undesirable, as it can create significant distortion in an already fragile nuclear fuel market by incentivising uneconomic production that relies on government support. A healthy global uranium market is the best solution to ensure future US security of supply,” Kazatomprom said in a statement.
