Niger: Greenpeace and Areva Controversy
Taking advantage of the Areva cooperation on the subject, Greenpeace took the opportunity to be the speaker and the “mouth-piece” of destabilisation, catalysing several local conflicts in giving them a global audience. The back idea and the purpose of the operation are not the decontamination of the sites under investigation but the questioning of the mining of uranium by Areva.
The controversy between Greenpeace and Areva reached France on March 28, 2010, following a Greenpeace press release picked up by news agencies, coinciding with many NGOs concerns which had arose, following the military coup that took place in Niger (18/02 / 2010), with the request of renegotiation of mining contracts signed by Areva in 2008.
