PARIS, March 9 (UPI) -- A reserve of low-enriched uranium will be deposited into an international nuclear fuel bank by the end of the year, Russian executives said in Paris.
Moscow in 2007 proposed the creation of a nuclear fuel bank holding low-enriched uranium reserves at a facility in Angarsk in central Russia. The reserves could give countries, including Iran, access to fuel for civilian nuclear power without the need for domestic enrichment.
