The Georgian Uranium now on route to Dounreay from RAF Kinloss should be stored and not reprocessed, Greenpeace said today. It will simply re-inject weapons grade material back into the international market.
Secure storage is the only responsible way of dealing with it.
It defies credibility that Tony Blair overruled the NII and sent the Uranium there. Its one of those 'Twilight Zone' decisions - too unbelievable to be true. Greenpeace is taking legal advice as to whether all the legal requirements have been met, including whether reprocessing has been 'justified' or whether other options for dealing with the material elsewhere, would have been more appropriate. Environment Ministers will meet in Lisbon in July this year.
