Argentina does not see the need to buy nuclear fuel from Russia or other countries or order the construction of new nuclear reactors, Argentine Foreign Minister Pablo Kirno said at a press conference.
We do not need to import either fuel or reactors. We don't need to buy goods or services from other countries
Kirno claims that Argentina has the necessary technologies and access to natural resources needed to create nuclear fuel. At the same time, in August 2020, Argentina was forced to postpone planning the joint construction of a nuclear power plant with Russia due to economic problems in the country, according to Argentine Ambassador to Russia Ricardo Lagorio.
Earlier, the Argentine government, in order to reduce federal spending, decided to hand over 49% of the shares of the state-owned company Nucleoelectrica, which manages three nuclear power plants in the country, to private hands. The decision of Javier Milei's administration was criticized by former Deputy of the National Congress of Argentina Osvaldo Nemirovski — he believes that this decision undermines the state's control over nuclear technologies.
