7. What about nuclear technology?
Sat Aug 13, 2022, 06:17 PM
Aug 2022
On February 12, 2019, Senators Ed Markey, Jeff Merkley, and Rand Paul introduced a
bipartisan resolution requiring that any deal to share nuclear technology with Saudi Arabia block
the Kingdom from creating a nuclear weapon.

Despite these concerns, the White House appears to be proceeding. As recently as
February 12, 2019, the President reportedly met with nuclear power developers at the White
House to discuss sharing nuclear technology with Saudi Arabia.


Further investigation is needed to determine whether the actions being pursued by the
Trump Administration are in the national security interest of the United States or, rather, serve
those who stand to gain financially as a result of this potential change in U.S. foreign policy.
