The U.S. and Saudi Arabia have secretly agreed to a landmark 30-year nuclear deal that could empower Riyadh to enrich uranium for civilian use — a move that’s sparking global alarm. Signed by top officials, the pact paves the way for American firms to help build Saudi enrichment infrastructure, despite lacking key international safeguards like the IAEA’s Additional Protocol. Critics warn it could dangerously normalize nuclear proliferation, especially as Saudi leaders have openly threatened to pursue weapons if Iran does. Meanwhile, U.S. lawmakers are raising eyebrows over the contradiction of blocking Iran’s enrichment while greenlighting Saudi Arabia’s — and the potential financial windfall for American nuclear giants like Westinghouse. This deal may redefine global nonproliferation — or set the stage for a new arms race.
