Considering the fact that uranium prices have been shooting up for the past year, the fact that this mine has been sitting idle until last week was seen by Niger as an indicator that the French were snubbing Nigerien uranium (that could have generated jobs, tax revenues, etc.).
Good move by Niger imo
