Namibia’s President Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah held talks with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yury Trutnev seeking to boost cooperation on nuclear energy in Africa’s biggest uranium producer.

Nandi-Ndaitwah in a meeting on Tuesday in Windhoek, the capital, “highlighted the need for stronger cooperation with the Russian Federation in the areas of energy,” Alfredo Hengari, press secretary for the presidency, said in a video statement. “Russia is a key player in the nuclear energy sector and Namibia is rich in uranium.”

The southern African nation has been exploring ways to develop local processing and refining industries to complement its natural resources that could attract investment and boost job creation. The meeting signaled a push to strengthen economic ties with Moscow, particularly in mineral processing.

Russia and Namibia “have room for further development, ” Trutnev said in a video of the meeting.

Namibia has also been in talks with other global partners, including China, about expanding its role in nuclear energy supply chains.
