Abstract
Russia has announced temporary restrictions on the export of enriched uranium to the US, potentially impacting American reactors that supply nearly 20% of the nation's electricity. This move comes amidst Russia's use of energy resources as geopolitical leverage, with the US imposing a ban on Russian enriched uranium imports. The US, which lacks sufficient domestic enrichment capacity, is working to restart its capabilities, while companies like Centrus Energy Corp. are exploring alternatives to mitigate the impact of the Russian restrictions.
