Donald Trump says Saudi nuclear deal "subject to Saudi Arabia joining" Abraham Accords

US President Donald Trump stated that a recently announced agreement permitting American technology for Saudi civilian nuclear power, including uranium enrichment, will only move forward if Riyadh normalizes relations with Israel by joining the Abraham Accords—a step the kingdom has so far resisted, citing the need for progress on Palestinian statehood. The deal, which would not require the snap UN inspections demanded of Iran, must be approved by Congress. Israel, which had worried the arrangement could spark a regional arms race, supported the condition. Saudi Arabia described the pact as supporting energy diversification under strict nonproliferation standards.
