Saudi Arabia and Russia have signed an agreement to cooperate on nuclear energy development, a Saudi government body in charge of such projects said.
The government body, the King Abdullah City for Atomic and Renewable Energy, announced the cooperation deal on its website on Thursday but gave no further details.
Saudi-owned al-Arabiya TV, citing unnamed sources, said the kingdom planned to build 16 nuclear reactors in which Russia would play a significant role in operating them.
The Saudi atomic and renewable energy body has already signed nuclear cooperation deals with countries able to build reactors, including the United States, France, Russia, South Korea, China and Argentina.
It is not clear if this new deal, announced on Thursday, will take cooperation with Russia to a more advanced level.

And it's 100% Obama's fault.
The USA has no more allies in the Middle East.
The BIG players, Egypt and the Saudis are doing arms deals with the Russians, and the Saudi's hooking up on nuke development.
Yep, an earthquake.
And a major shift in world power.
Next we'll see a Chinese naval base in Venezuela. Airfields in Nicaragua.
Agreed.
It could portend absolute disaster for the USA.
Within a year or so we'll see breaks by countries in Europe looking to deal in favor with Russia.
A complete disaster.
It's not just the Saudis getting nuclear reactors either...Egypt and Jordon also recently signed agreements to have reactors built.

“It would be tragic if Mecca had Chernobyl incident.”
I was thinking the same thing.
Real disaster is inevitable end of current debt based economy.
Having nuclear plant is not enough to create weapons, they must have enrichment technology to produce bombs. Bulgaria and Japan have nuclear power plants but no weapon.

“Despite the collective sense that a catastrophe of some type stares Greece in the face, the country’s strong tradition of hospitality remains intact. Mathes won’t let a visitor leave without a bundle of fresh vegetables and some “trachanas” and “chilopites,” types of local pasta his family makes by hand.
Many believe the ability to help one another with food gives Karitaina, with about 30 year-round residents and 100 in the long, drowsy summer, a better chance of surviving than city dwellers coping with the same anxieties. Rural Greek communities have age-old survival tactics that allow them to weather storms such as World War II deprivation and natural disasters. They will need to draw on them deeply, as Greece’s current problems are unlikely to go away soon...”
How many American urban ant farms make their own pasta?
Oh, so besides being a stalker, you’re also anti-American? Enjoy the 4th.
Stalker?
LOL. I just read the story about the Greek debt crisis. The observation about local food production reminded me of our conversation here.
>>youre also anti-American?
Nope. I’m anti Marxist Ant-pile. Aren’t you?
Good to hear.
