The Trump administration supports a nuclear pact with Saudi Arabia. This agreement allows uranium enrichment and spent fuel processing by Riyadh. Saudi Arabia seeks nuclear power to reduce carbon emissions and export more oil. The United States gains strategic and commercial benefits from this cooperation. Other nations like China and Russia also show interest in Saudi nuclear projects.

The agreement gives American companies priority access to nuclear reactors and fuel to Saudi Arabia. It's expected to last decades and be worth billions of dollars.

The deal is expected to be a financial windfall for American companies but is likely to raise concerns of nuclear proliferation in the Middle East.
