The U.S. and Saudi Arabia have signed a landmark nuclear agreement allowing American companies to build and operate commercial nuclear power plants in the kingdom, supply reactors, and provide fuel. The deal's implementation now depends on Saudi Arabia's willingness to normalise relations with Israel.

The Wire takeaway

If you build nuclear equipment or fuel, you now have a proven buyer in Saudi Arabia - but the deal hinges on a political condition that may never be met. Call your export lawyer before planning Saudi revenue.
