When the US cut itself off from Russian energy products, uranium was not on the list. President Joe Biden banned<\/a> Russian oil, coal, and gas imports in March. The administration reportedly considered<\/a> sanctioning Russia\u2019s state-owned nuclear power company, Rosatom, too. But industry lobbying<\/a> and Biden\u2019s plans to include nuclear reactors in a transition to clean energy have left the uranium trade untouched. <\/p>\n

Now, Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine is forcing the US to grapple with vulnerabilities in its supply chain for uranium. It\u2019s also heating up the long-standing debate over what role nuclear energy might play in the future of the power grid. War has quickly raised the stakes.<\/p>\n
