President of Russia Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that Moscow should consider restricting exports of uranium, titanium and nickel in retaliation to the West.
Putin spoke about it at the government meeting, the Prime Minister of Russia To Mihail Mishustin. Putin’s comments were broadcast on television.
The European Union is still dependent on Russian nickel. Almost all the nickel imported by the EU from Russia comes through Finland. Finland is also home to the only Russian nickel processing plant in the entire EU region.
