Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad wrapped up his daylong visit to
Western African country of Benin, where he received the country’s highest
civilian decoration, and headed to Niger. There he is expected to discuss
direct import of uranium with the country’s officials. Niger is the
world’s fourth largest producer of uranium, with the French nuclear group
Areva having had a monopoly of production and sales of its
uranium. (Reuters, 15 April)
Iran does have its own uranium mines, but could soon exhaust the
reserves crucial to its nuclear program. After Niger, Ahmadinejad will visit
Ghana before heading home to serve out his last two months as president.

My boy Mahmoud is raking in frequent flyer miles and highest medals to boot! At least he is popular in Africa and when Mashaie loses he can get this medal as a consolation prize.
Iranian softpower is creating good ties with Africa. Iran has invested heavily in African trade and infrastructure and President Ahmadinejad has just announced the the construction work of a 25-megawatt power plant in the African state of Benin on Monday.
Iran's Power Plant Projects Management Company (MAPNA), one of the major general contractors of energy projects in Iran, is slated to complete Benin's power plant project in a period of about one year.
Beninese President Thomas Yayi Boni also accompanied President Ahmadinejad in the inaugural ceremony.
President Ahmadinejad, heading a high-ranking delegation, arrived in Benin Sunday on the first leg of his tri-nation tour of Africa which will later take him to Niger and Ghana.
Iran stands the 4th among the power-generating countries in the world and has integrated its electricity network into the power grids of seven neighboring countries, including Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan.
