US plans to announce nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia

The United States is planning to announce a nuclear cooperation agreement with Saudi Arabia, allowing the kingdom to pursue a civilian nuclear program, according to media reports. The deal, which would involve American companies building a uranium enrichment facility under certain conditions, is being reported by the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, citing unnamed U.S. officials. While the agreement aims to benefit the U.S. nuclear industry financially, some U.S. lawmakers and Israeli officials have expressed concerns that such a program could lead to the development of nuclear weapons. Although the deal is expected to be submitted to Congress, legislative approval is not required for it to proceed. Meanwhile, tensions persist between Saudi Arabia and Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, with recent clashes threatening to escalate the conflict.
