In May, Russia supplied the United States with 91.1 tons of enriched uranium worth $209.5 million. This was reported by the U.S. State Bureau.

It is known that in April uranium supplies from Russia to the United States were suspended, but in May they resumed again.

It should be noted that the new delivery became the maximum after March 2023, when the United States purchased from Russia enriched uranium for 245.9 million dollars.

At the same time, the United States purchased enriched uranium for $245.9 million in May, which is the maximum amount for all time.

It should be recalled that a ban on imports of low-enriched uranium will come into effect in August, as the U.S. authorities made such a decision in May 2024.
