I've Been Thinking:

Saudi Arabia signed an agreement with Russia to develop nuclear energy - in Saudi Arabia.

One single source has alerted us to this agreement to which will develop atomic energy and atomic energy only i.e. non-military nukes.

Until now Saudi Arabia has been conflicted on the issue of nukes. The Saudi King was against nukes, his defense minister was in favor. But the Saudis have initiated several serious steps toward becoming a nuclear power in the past.

This move by Saudi Arabia comes as a direct response to Iran's nuclear development.

The Saudis cannot be left in a weak nuclear position relative to Iran.
