Trump Approves 30-Year US-Saudi Nuclear Deal Allowing Uranium Enrichment Potential
US President Donald Trump has approved a 30-year nuclear cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia, enabling the kingdom to develop a civilian nuclear program potentially including uranium enrichment. The deal positions US firms at the center of Saudi Arabia's nuclear infrastructure development and excludes certain global safeguards like the IAEA's Additional Protocol. While supporters highlight strategic and economic benefits, critics and lawmakers express concerns about increased nuclear proliferation risks and regional security implications. The agreement will undergo review by the US Congress before implementation.
