Iran denies reports on suspension of Kazakh Uranium deal
By Trend
Iran has denied a recent report on Kazakhstan’s decision to
suspend a deal on supplying uranium to the Islamic Republic.
Atomic Energy Organization of Iran (AEOI) Spokesman Behrouz
Kamalvandi has described the report as fake news, IRNA news agency
reported.
The Brussels-based New Europe weekly has recently reported that the
Iran policy of the new US administration has made it impossible for
Kazakhstan to supply uranium to Iran.
Kazakhstan’s national company Kazatomprom and the nuclear energy
organization of Iran have a contract for supply of 950 tons of
uranium.
According to Kamalvandi, the members of the P5+1 group of countries
had earlier endorsed the agreement but the UK after the election of
Donald Trump as the US president expressed its disagreement with
the uranium deal.
