re: Let's end a talking Point: Just WHO was on the CFIUS that approved uranium ONE

Asked about that, the commission confirmed that Uranium One has, in fact, shipped yellowcake to Canada even though it does not have an export license. Instead, the transport company doing the shipping, RSB Logistic Services, has the license. A commission spokesman said that “to the best of our knowledge” most of the uranium sent to Canada for processing was returned for use in the United States. A Uranium One spokeswoman, Donna Wichers, said 25 percent had gone to Western Europe and Japan.


I mean damn dude. It should be pretty obvious that I was baiting you into making the claim that it was never exported just so that I could expose your ignorance here.

The RSB Logistical Services export license is a restricted license.

The RSB Logistical Services export license only allows for uranium to be sent to Canada for processing and then returned to the U.S. Any uranium send to any other party not on the export license requires prior U.S. approval.

This is from the export license that RSB Logistic Services has, describing the transfer of uranium to Canada for processing.:

quote:
The licensee is authorized to export a cumulative total of 12,000,000.0 kilograms natural uranium in the form of uranium ore concentrate (U30a). The uranium authorized for export is to be returned to the United States. If it is to be transferred to another (non-U.S.) ultimate consignee not listed on this license, Canada must obtain U.S. prior approval before the material is re-transferred.
