NONALIGNID COINTRIES MEET ON NUCLEAR ENERGY USE
PA070453 Havana PRELA in Spanish 1615 GMT 6 Jul 80
[Article by Aram Ruben Aharonian]
[Text] The first meeting of the nonal~;ned country coordinators for the
peaceful u~e of nuclear energy proposed the demanding of strict compliance
with the clauses of the nuclear energy for peaceful purposes treaty and
the end of the nuclear weapons race.
The meeting was held in Buenos Aires from 3C June to 4 July with the
participation of coordinating countries Algeria, Argentina, Cuba, Egypt,
Gabon, Indonesia, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Libya and Yugoslavia. India,
Peru and the DPRK, which are movement a~ember.s also participated, as did
Brazil, the Philippines and Uruguay as observers and Ranania as a guest.
The meeting was,inaugurated by Cuban representatj.ve Miguel Alfonsin,
president of the coordinating bureau of the nonaligned countries, and the
president of the Argentine Atomic Organization, Vice-Admiral Carlos
~ Castro Ma~ero, who was elected to preside over the meeting.
The f inal document ~f the meeting adopted a policy line in the nuclear
field. This document deals with problems emerging from bilateral relations
and the detrimental effects of the conditions imposed by the "London Club,"
which includes the countries with highly developed nuclear technology.
It adds that they discussed cooperation and international exchange in the
fields of the peaceful uses of nuclear energy, especially those derived
from unilateral decisions as well as retroactive ones, the imposition of
_ the right of "previous cansent" or undue restrictions on technological
- transf er.
In considering various matters related to the activities of the UN Inter-
national Energy Organization [EIO], the nonaligned countries concluded
that an adequate balance must be attained between promotional activities
and the regulation and control of the organizations. They also said that
the election of the EIO directive board must not be limited to a few
countries, but that it should be as democratic as possible, and prcposed
- a regional distribution of the directive posts and secretariats.

They said that the organization's programs must keep in mind the needs
of developing countries in the field of generation of auclear energy,
the development oL the uranium cycle and other states of the fuel cycle.
They added that distortions in the interpretation of the statutes are
unacceptable, especially regarding the application of control requirements.
Regarding the basic goal of the meeting, after having heard and analyzed
the various proposals or the delegations, several specific areas for
- cooperation were defined in the nuclear field between nonal~.gned countries
_ and members of ~he developing group of 77 countries. According to tlie
approved resolutions, cooperation can be ascertai:~ed by investigation,
development, mining e:cploration and exploitation of radioisotopes and
sources of radiation, radiological protection and nuclear security,
nuclear-electric generation and activities in the fuel cycle.
The possible mechanisms used to attain this cooperation between nonaligned
countries will be explored. The study and cooperation between nonaligned
countries was analyzed from bilateral or multilateral cooperation to
support projects, including the possible organization of centers with
multilateral sponsorship for the development of technology and other
f ields .
The meeting also studied various matters relating to the attitude of
nonaligned countries at international organizations and congresses. It
then expressed severe criticism of the restrictions established by the
great countries supplying equipment and technology. Specifically, it
dealt with problems related *_o the second conference for the Revision of
the Nonproliferation of Nuclear. Weapons Treaty and proposed the demanding
~ of the strict compliance with the clauses of the treaty guaranteeing the
development of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes.
It also demanded the immediate halt of the nuclear arms race and noted
that the technological assistance and promotion included in its text has
not been, and is not being, implemented. It said that the treaty is used
to hamper the transfer of nuclear materials, equipment and technology,
and not for the promotion of the peaceful uses of nuclear energy. It also
noted that the nonaligned countries must insist on the understanding that
the excess of plutonion deposited at ~he EIO should be returned, as soon
as the owner country so demands it, with requirements that will not go
beyond establishing safeguards. This observation was included in the
notes of the conference but did not appear in the final draft.
The study by this first nonaligned countries coordinators in the peacef ul
use of nuclear energy also included proposals to be made by the movement
regarding the dates and proposals of the International Conference for
the Promotion of International Cooperation in the Peaceful Uses of Nuclear
Energy scheduled for 1983.
The conclusions will be presented to the nonaligned country bureau in
Havana and should be r_onsidered during the next meeting of the movement's
foreign ministers, scheduled for January in New Delhi, India.

LATIN AMERICAN NUCLEAR POLICY HARDENS
Buenos Aires LA OPINION in Spanish 5 Jul 80 p 13
[Article by I;stela Araujo: "An Atomic Policy for Latin America~~]
[Text] The recent statements by National Atom~c Energy Commission Chair-
man VAdm Carlos Castro Madero reveal him in fiis capacity as~ negotiator.
Castro Madero, an expert in nuclear pfiys~cs and one of tfie most ski1fu11
officials in the service of Argentina, tfiroughout tiis successful term of
~ office in charge of this agency proved tfiat it is not only necessary to
have technical knowledge hut tfiat one must also fiave a political and geo-
_ political vision which is sometfiing tfiat sometimes escapes ofi s~ervers.
In his opening address to tfie Congress of Specialists of Nonalined Nations
--meeting during the first week ih July, prior to the next Conference on
the Development of International Coopexation in tfie Speci:fic Uses of
Nuclear Energy of the United Nations---Castro Madero said:
(a) "The IAEA has been used as a restrictive agency to taene�it certain
political and economic interests."
(b) "The lntentions of the Club~ of London to protect tiie economic inter-
ests of the suppliers in the nuclea.r field--argutng tfiat tfiey want to
prevent proliferation--almost completely paralyzed international trade in
this field."
(c) "The Nuclear Nonproliferation Law proved to be an obs~tacle in the w~y
of harmony and understanding in the international nuclear fte].d."
(d) "We must act in a coordinated manner in all international forums~ tn
which we can make aur voice heard."
The pclicy of the National Atcmiic Energ~ Commission has been qne of the
few coherent and long-range national goverrnnent policies whicfi remained
beyond discussion. Perhaps, its real fruits cannot yet lie see.n ox per-
haps an indirect strategy, sucti as tfie one developed by Castxo Madero,
may not reach the desired objective, hut one cannot dou~t that, arttliout

them, re.lation:~ with the nonalined countries indicate the possibilit~es
of leadership which Argentina has in this field. -
The Argentine position in atomic matters has not beer_ easy since it had -
to cope with the obstacles imposed by tfie Nuclear NPT wfiicfi granted
_ privileges to countries tfiat already had atomic explosi~~es when tfiat
treaty was signed (1967). Initially, the treaty was signea fiy the United
States, the USSR, and Great Britain and Cfiina and France did not wish to
sign even though they were able to do so.
From this point of departure, tfie developing countries were left outside tbe -
field of nuclear technology. Argentina nevertfieless managed to build its
Atucha I power plant, to have tfie Embals~e Power Plant under constructi.on,
r.o achieve the signiag of the Atucfia I~I Accords, wTiich it is hoped will
be operational by 1487, as well as the fieavy water piant which is tfie next
to the last step in nuclear autonomy.
The final step perhaps was the agreement signed w~.tfi. Brazil in May, Brazil
has the possibility of conpleting tfie fuel cycle tlixougfi tfie treaty with
- Germany.
The hoiding of the Congress of Nonalined Countries ~n Buenos A~re$ will '
enable Argentina to continue to create contacts and connectians in tfie -
nuclear field. The Tlatelolco Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, on wh~:ch
Argentina started conversar.ions regarding ratification, does not fiave tfia
discriminatory character of tfie NPT since it establis~hes~ "the unavoida~ile I
- necessity for the Latin. American countries te avail themselves of their.. I
right to the maximum ex.tent and to fiave more equitable access to tfiis i
source of energy in order to speed up tf~e economic and social development i
of their peoples. ,
The agreements with Srazil eliminate the argument to the effect tfiat nuclear
energy could be used for. purposes otfier tfian peaceful ones due to rivalries
among those two peoples. !

_ Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela, and Uruguay outline ttie Firoad xange o~ Argen-
tina's efforts in collaborating in this field in tfie deyelopment of !
Latin America as well as its advanced si.tuation in tfie nuclear fielc~.
i
The homogeneous proposal be~ng introduced in the United Natj.ons will ~
demonstrate the independent cfiaracter wit~i wfiich nuclear pol~cy has been
gradually forged and will perhaps help in underscor~n~ tfis need for a znore
flexible approach to Carter's policy i~n atomic matters.

~f\rticle by S.K.: "Manna"f
~'1'ext J Jranium, W}11C~1 was discovered by tt~e French Atomic Energy Commissi~n
[A1:CJ in 1J66, has been exploited since 1971, both for 75 years [as publish-
ed] by the Air hfining Compaiiy (SOMAIR) and since 1978 by che Akouta Mining
Company (COMINAK).
The Nigeri.an government, through the Nigerian National Office of Mineral Re-
_ sources (OIvAItEM) , holds 33 percent of the shares of SOMAIR and 31 perce~it of
thc sliares of COMINAK. The remainder are held chiefly by COGEMA [General
Nuclear Materials Company] (a branch of tl~e AEC) and German, Itialian, Spanish
and Japanese companies. A third company, the Tassa N~taghalgue M.ining Com-
pany (SMTT), founded in 1979 (SO percent ONAREM, 50 percent COGEMA), in 1983
is to begin open-cast exploitation of a mirie whose reserves are assessed at
30,000 tor..s. But the most important deposit was disc~vered south of Arlit in ~
Imouraren: 70,000 tons. Exploitation should begin t}iere in 1985. Other stud-
ies are in progress in ~he region and investments committed since 1960 to min-
irig company exploration has already been estimated at 18,OJ0,000,000 CFA
francs.
In 1979 Niger (the sixth largest producer in the world) extracted from its
subsoil 3,5~)0 tons of uranium and exported 3,500 tons that were sold by the
exploiting companies to tt~e shareholding countries: France, Japan, Italy, `
- Spain ancl the Federal Republic of Germany. At the same time ONARE[N was sell-
- ing its share of the producti.on in Great Britain, Pakistan, the Netherlands and .
Libya.
fn 1~)90 Ni~;er should produce 10,000 tons, which would assure it first place in
nfrica ancl fourth place iii tl~e world. Sance 1977 uranium revenues--sales,
taxes on ~~roi'its, customs duty, l:~.cense fees--have nearly tripled. In 197J
tiicy in~;re~sed from 8,UOO,OOO,OOU to 21,000,000,000 CFA f~sncs, which today re-
~~res~:nts a third of the national budget.

BRIEFS
SOMAIR'S 1~79 URANIUM PRODUCTION--The 1979 report of the Mokta Company in-
aicates that its Nigerian subsidiary (7.G percent), Ai:r Mining Company
(SUMAIR), produced 1,775 tons of uranium in 1979, as against 1,710 tons i~i
1~78. Sales amounted to 1,640 tons, as against 1,85D tons the year before,
because oi a slowciow~i in removal. This delay, combined with an increase in
= various kinds of expenses, caused the company's results to be lower t.han in
1978. However, SOMAIR's funas in 1979 enabled it to distribute a dividend of
7,300,000,000 CFA francs, as against 6,523,000,000 the year before. [Text]
