Opposition from victims' families of the September 11 attacks and advocacy groups led by Terry Strada is mounting against Saudi Arabia’s proposal to develop civilian nuclear reactors, with concerns reportedly gaining traction within the Trump administration. Critics argue the plan could undermine global nonproliferation efforts and raise security risks, particularly given Saudi Arabia’s history of tensions with regional rivals. The push for approval has sparked a debate over balancing energy needs with national security priorities, as supporters emphasize economic and energy independence benefits. The controversy highlights deep divisions over how to handle nuclear cooperation with countries under scrutiny for their regional influence and military ambitions.
