Nazarov D. The problems of natural uranium and its compounds’ export diversification by domestic enterprises of chemical or allied industries

Abstract

The article deals with the dynamics of natural uranium and its compounds exports by domestic enterprises of chemical and related industries, the main exports’ tendencies of this type of chemical products to foreign markets for the period 2006-2014 years and the basic problems of nuclear energy and production of natural uranium in Ukraine. It is noted that the current domestic energy was in a very difficult situation (due to higher dependence on external sources of energy resources) that can be considered one of the greatest threats to the sovereignty of our state to the aggravation of political relations with Russia, on which Ukraine is dependent in covering its’  energy needs in the field of oil and gas, and nuclear power. It is indicated also that their own geological reserves of Ukraine belongs to one of the richest uranium deposits in the world states, but uses only a small portion of proven reserves and this production is largely dependent on Russia.
