A BOLD DEMAND FOR JUSTICE
Niger is calling on France to return uranium extracted since 1968, citing decades of unfair deals that left the country shortchanged.
Reports indicate that Niger’s uranium was bought at very low prices and resold on the international market for massive profits, while the Nigerien state reportedly lost thousands of billions annually from its own resources.
Now, with full control restored, Niger is moving forward — funding the construction of two nuclear power plants (2GW each) without loans or debt.
This is what happens when a nation takes charge of its destiny.
This is resource sovereignty in action.
This is the product of revolution
