Saudi Arabia has not ruled out nuclear weapons, intelligence says
Original: Saudis have not ruled out developing nuclear weapons, intelligence assesses
Intelligence assessments indicate Saudi Arabia has not ruled out developing nuclear weapons. The finding underscores long-standing concerns that Riyadh could pursue a nuclear deterrent if regional rivals, particularly Iran, advance their own nuclear programmes, and it raises fresh questions about nuclear proliferation in the Middle East and the future of any US-Saudi nuclear cooperation agreement.
Why now: Reports that Saudi Arabia is keeping a nuclear weapons option open stoke concerns about a regional arms race with Iran.
