Pakis and Saudis in Secret Nuke Deal

 

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have concluded a secret
agreement on "nuclear cooperation" that will provide the
Saudis with nuclear-weapons technology in exchange for cheap oil,
according to a ranking Pakistani insider.

The disclosure came at the end of a 26-hour state visit to Islamabad
last weekend by Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, Saudi Arabia’s de
facto ruler, who flew across the Arabian Sea with an entourage of 200,
including Foreign Minister Prince Saud Al Faisal and several Cabinet
ministers.

"It will be vehemently denied by both countries," said
the Pakistani source, whose information has proven reliable for more
than a decade, "but future events will confirm that Pakistan has
agreed to provide [Saudi Arabia] with the wherewithal for a nuclear deterrent."
