WASHINGTON - US Republican Senators on Thursday introduced a Bill to ban US imports of Russian uranium to punish Moscow for its invasion of Ukraine.

The Bill comes as the Biden administration has been weighing sanctions on Russian nuclear power company Rosatom, a major supplier of fuel and technology to power plants around the world.

Mr Barrasso represents Wyoming, a state that could benefit from a revitalisation in US uranium mining. Russian uranium made up 16 per cent of US purchases in 2020, according to the Energy Information Administration, with Canada and Kazakhstan each providing 22 per cent.
