US plans to announce nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia: Media

The United States is reportedly planning to announce a landmark nuclear agreement with Saudi Arabia, which would support the establishment of a civilian nuclear program in the kingdom. This development follows ongoing tensions with Iran, particularly regarding Iran’s nuclear ambitions, which have been a central issue in stalled negotiations between the two countries. According to media reports citing two unnamed U.S. officials, the Trump administration intends to formally sign and announce the deal. The agreement includes provisions allowing American companies to build a uranium enrichment facility in Saudi Arabia. However, some U.S. lawmakers and Israeli officials have expressed concerns that the deal could lead to the development of nuclear weapons by Saudi Arabia. While the deal is expected to be submitted to Congress, its approval is not necessary for implementation. Saudi Arabia has consistently asserted its right to pursue a civilian nuclear program. In recent years, the U.S. has linked nuclear agreements with broader strategic goals, including normalizing relations between Saudi Arabia and Israel and signing a U.S. defense pact. The U.S. previously signed a nuclear agreement
