Saudis May Seek Nuclear Weapons
(Gulf Daily News-Bahrain) Saudi Arabia may consider acquiring nuclear weapons, its former intelligence chief Prince Turki Al Faisal said Monday. "It is our duty towards our nation and people to consider all possible options, including the possession of these [nuclear] weapons," Prince Turki told a security forum in Riyadh. Abdul Ghani Malibari, coordinator at the Saudi civil nuclear agency, said in June that Riyadh plans to build 16 civilian nuclear reactors in the next two decades at a cost of $80 billion.
