Russia, Brazil sign agreement to increase uranium processing by 25% — Rosatom According to the Russian state nuclear corporation, this shows that cooperation is not only continuing but is gradually expandingMOSCOW, July 29. /TASS/. Russia's uranium processing for Brazil will increase by 25% under a supplementary agreement signed by the parties in June 2026, state nuclear corporation Rosatom told the Izvestia newspaper. "It is important to note that in June 2026, the parties signed a supplementary agreement, increasing the volume of this contract by 25%. This shows that cooperation is not only continuing but is gradually expanding," a Rosatom spokesperson explained to the newspaper.
