US Deals Nuclear Tech with MBS, Citing 'Stability'
The 'Trump ally' in question, मोहम्मद बिन सलमान (MBS), has a well-documented human rights record, including the alleged orchestration of Jamal Khashoggi's murder, yet he's deemed a suitable partner for nuclear technology. This administration, which previously promised to make Saudi Arabia a 'pariah' state, is now offering it the keys to the nuclear kingdom. One might wonder if 'stability' now
means equipping regimes that routinely destabilize the region with advanced weaponry, particularly when Saudi Arabia has actively engaged in war in Yemen, leading to a humanitarian catastrophe. This 'deal' isn't just about energy; it's about geopolitical muscle-flexing, ignoring past warnings from non-proliferation experts. Remember how we supposedly blocked Iran from developing nuclear weapons
for 'regional stability'? Now, we're handing the capability to a regime famous for human rights abuses and aggressive foreign policy. It's almost as if the rules for proliferation depend entirely on who's signing the checks and which ally needs a strategic boost, not on actual global security.
