🇳🇪 #Niger : THE COUNTRY PUTS ITS URANIUM ON THE INTERNATIONAL MARKET, FRANCE REACTS
On November 30, 2025, Niger officially announced that it would now sell its uranium on the international market itself. General Abdourahamane Tiani stated that Niger was exercising its "legitimate right" to manage its natural wealth and sell it to any buying country, independently.
Until now, production was managed by the Somaïr company, largely controlled by the French group Orano. However, since June 2025, Somaïr is fully owned by the Nigerien state, which intends to completely regain control over mining operations. Orano has also lost control of several sites, including Cominak and especially the gigantic Imouraren deposit, estimated at 200,000 tons of uranium.
Tensions reached a new high on November 27, 2025, when a shipment of uranium left the Arlit mine without the French company being informed. Orano, which has not had access to the mines since 2024, claims that this transfer is illegal and violates an international arbitration decision temporarily prohibiting Niger from selling this uranium. The company is considering legal action.
For President Tiani, on the contrary, the uranium belongs to the Nigerien people, and the 1,300 tons produced in 2025 — valued at over 250 million euros — must be sold freely. Several countries such as Russia, Turkey, or Iran are already said to be interested.
The standoff between Niger and Orano is therefore as much economic as it is geopolitical. Its outcome could influence the future of relations between Africa and foreign companies.
And you, do you think Niger is right to completely regain control of its uranium?
