U.S. deal with Saudi Arabia could allow them to enrich uranium

The Trump administration intends to announce a civilian nuclear cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia. According to reports and anonymous U.S. officials, this deal aims to solidify ties between Washington and the kingdom. The agreement could potentially allow Saudi Arabia to enrich its own uranium. However, experts suggest that such capabilities might place the country on a path toward potentially developing a nuclear weapon, raising significant national security concerns regarding the proliferation of nuclear technology.
