From oil to atoms: Donald Trump to open nuclear door to Saudis
The Trump White House is set to announce a significant nuclear cooperation deal with Saudi Arabia. This agreement allows for extensive civilian nuclear cooperation and uranium enrichment on Saudi soil. Critics express concerns about nuclear proliferation and regional security implications. The US administration argues this approach counters Russian and Chinese influence in the region. Lawmakers will scrutinize the deal, which may weaken existing non-proliferation safeguards.
