In the heart of Africa lies a tale of exploitation and intrigue, where the glimmering power of uranium fuels a relentless dance between two nations. France, a world leader in nuclear energy, finds its lifeline in the uranium-rich soils of Niger, a land struggling under the shadow of poverty and deprivation. Through the murky corridors of diplomacy and the harrowing legacy of colonialism, France's pursuit of energy becomes a desperate grasp for control.
