This seems to be big news, and I wouldn’t doubt it’s true. Saudi Arabia has been working hard to join the mainstream of the world, which is not an easy task for them. All we ever get to see are the Kings, princes and other nobles, but this is a country of 37 million with a mix of Sunni and Shia Muslims. Christianity is only ~4%, with Hindus ~2.5% and Muslims at ~92%.
There are many radicals in all Muslim countries, especially in the thought that Islam is the only way, which is like all other religious people. But it is the high number of Muslims willing to use violence to force convert those who do not believe that is the issue. Most of those Muslims are in Iran, along with some of their proxies like Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza.
I don’t have any concerns with Saudi Arabia and this deal, but it has to go through Congress, and that will be a show to watch. If we don’t provide this, China will jump in with two feet, and that is something we can’t have. All IMO.

“Multiple reports citing anonymous officials on Wednesday claimed that the administration of President Donald Trump is in varying stages of approving a deal to share nuclear technology with Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi news agency Al-Arabiya reported on various of these claims in American establishment media, including a report by the Wall Street Journal that Trump had already formally approved a nuclear agreement with the country and one by Reuters stating that the Trump administration was planning to seeking congressional approval for the deal. The White House at press time has not commented on the reports, nor has the Saudi government.
If it moves forward, the agreement would reportedly grant Saudi Arabia the ability to build and sustain nuclear power plants, potentially moving the country away from its dependence on fossil fuels. It would also put the country on par with the neighboring United Arab Emirates (UAE), home to the only active nuclear plant in the Arab world, and Iran, whose development of nuclear energy has long alarmed both Washington and its Middle East neighbors.”
