The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages.

The deal was for a complete 'nuclear fuel cycle'.

Multilateral nuclear fuel cycle arrangements

Solutions to the issue of nuclear submarine fuel can be found.

First, international precedent tells us that nuclear fuel delivery contracts are unreliable, and no legally binding international document or instrument exists to guarantee the delivery of nuclear fuel.

Given that fossil fuels contribute to global warming, standard economic theory suggests we should tax them according to their cumulative negative effects.

Urges the formulation of guarantees of access to nuclear fuel services, or to fuel itself, subject to appropriate conditions.

Russia indicates that it is willing to provide such fuel services.

The nuclear reactor core is the portion of a nuclear reactor where the nuclear reactions take place.

Third, alternative approaches are being explored to deal with the issue of the nuclear fuel cycle.

There is currently an extensive international dialogue on nuclear fuel cycle issue.

Proposals have been mooted to impose a moratorium on uranium enrichment and plutonium separation, to multilateralize the nuclear fuel cycle or to banish the building of new national fuel cycle facilities.

Today s politicians focus narrowly on how high a carbon tax should be to stop people from using fossil fuels.

We welcome early discussion of the report of the IAEA Expert Group on Multilateral Approaches to the Nuclear Fuel Cycle and underline the importance of better ensuring that nuclear fuel cycles will be exclusively used for peaceful purposes.

It is time for the Security Council to try to internationalize the most dangerous parts of the nuclear fuel cycle.

Iran has later argued that these experiences indicate foreign facilities and foreign fuel supplies are an unreliable source of nuclear fuel supply.

urging the formulation of guarantees of access to nuclear fuel services, or to fuel itself, subject to appropriate conditions

(i) The Review Conference should encourage a moratorium on the development of new nuclear fuel cycle systems until agreement can be reached on a multilateral arrangement based on the report of the IAEA Expert Group on Multinational Approaches to the Nuclear Fuel Cycle

The opportunity to put the nuclear fuel cycle under multinational control was missed 60 years ago because of the Cold War.

developing international and multilateral approaches to manage the risks of fuel production for civilian nuclear power and

Argentina welcomed the Director General's initiative of convening the Expert Group on Multilateral Approaches to the Nuclear Fuel Cycle.

(N.B. this excludes nuclear fuel cycle activities that can be addressed through conventional safeguards arrangements.

In the meantime, IAEA should promote practical approaches to ensure the safety of the nuclear fuel cycle.

It has pressed for multinational nuclear fuel facilities that would eliminate the need for national installations that draw proliferation concerns.

No state would be required to give up the right to develop its own fuel cycle.

In April 2006, Ahmadinejad announced that Iran had successfully refined uranium to a stage suitable for the nuclear fuel cycle.

Participation by Egypt in the working group established by the IAEA Director General for the study of the nuclear fuel cycle and how to control it

With great honor, I declare that as of today our dear country has joined the nuclear club of nations and can produce nuclear fuel on an industrial scale , said Ahmadinejad.

His delegation was equally concerned about the nuclear programme of the Islamic Republic of Iran and urged Iranian authorities to limit the more sensitive phases of the country's nuclear fuel cycle.

The challenge, then, is to reduce our current reliance on fossil and nuclear fuels for base load power.

Once fully operational, these facilities will give Iran mastery of the entire nuclear fuel cycle.

The work of the Expert Group on Multilateral Approaches to the Nuclear Fuel Cycle also contributed to those efforts.

There was no incompatibility between tightening controls over the nuclear fuel cycle and expanding the use of peaceful nuclear technology.

The recent report from the IAEA expert group on multilateral approaches to the nuclear fuel cycle should guide those efforts.

Recent developments have put increased focus on the nuclear fuel cycle, including the need to create incentives for States to voluntarily forgo the national development of the most proliferation sensitive parts of the fuel cycle.

The December 2006 resolution curbed international assistance to Iran in mastering the nuclear fuel cycle.

Not only have sanctions failed to halt Iran s fuel cycle programs, but so have other avenues.

Much attention is already being given to the first step, that is, to provide the assurance of supply of nuclear fuel and technology at competitive market prices.

From a reading of the report (NPT CONF.2005 18), points were drawn up for your consideration on proposals related to the nuclear fuel cycle.

Civilian use of nuclear energy and technology must become fully resistant to proliferation, with better mechanisms for controlling the nuclear fuel cycle.

It is particularly important to note that the peaceful use of nuclear energy without possession of the nuclear fuel cycle is an empty proposition.

The EU believes it is important to encourage access guarantees to nuclear fuel related services or to the fuel itself, under appropriate conditions.

Other policies, such as redirecting subsidies paid by rich countries to the fossil fuel industry, or levying a tax on financial transactions, could provide a further 10 billion each year.

With Iran, we realized that mastery of the fuel cycle makes you a virtual nuclear weapons state, a top aide to El Baradei told me. That was a wake up call for all of us.

Iran began its nuclear research as early as 1975, when France cooperated with Iran to set up the Esfahan Nuclear Technology Center (ENTC) to provide training for personnel to develop certain nuclear fuel cycle capabilities.
