Peaceful Civilian Nuclear Energy Agreement

Agreement for Cooperation Between the U.S. and the U.A.E. Concerning Peaceful uses of Nuclear Energy. - White Paper / 21 May 2009



The numbers add up: Congress can support a global business opportunity for U.S. companies by backing a historic agreement that enhances U.S. security. The U.S.-U.A.E. agreement on peaceful nuclear energy cooperation sets a new global standard for security, transparency and nonproliferation. With congressional support, this $40B U.A.E. project also could mean high-quality jobs for Americans at home.
