Trump Eases Nuclear Safeguards for Saudi Arabia, Experts Warn of Proliferation Risks

President Trump approved a deal that relaxes nuclear safety standards for Saudi Arabia. The change applies to a close U.S. ally in the Middle East. Nuclear experts criticized the move as dangerous. They said it adds fuel to the already smoldering fire of atomic proliferation. The lowered safeguards could destabilize regional security. Experts warn the shift may increase the risk of nuclear conflict. Critics argue the policy undermines long‑standing non‑proliferation goals. The development is expected to spark further debate in Washington.
