Trump says Saudi nuclear pact requires kingdom to normalize Israel relations through Abraham Accords

President Trump and White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that any nuclear deal with Saudi Arabia is contingent on the kingdom joining the Abraham Accords to normalize relations with Israel. While Trump threatened Iran and Houthi allies with major military punishment, nonproliferation experts expressed concerns regarding the potential agreement. Specifically, they argue the deal lacks necessary guardrails to prevent the enrichment of uranium to weapons-grade levels, posing a significant risk to global security.
