US-Saudi Nuclear deal: anyone else worried?

Anyone else worried about the US-Saudi nuclear deal? I’m not a political scientist but it feels like giving nuclear enrichment capabilities to a dictatorship is not the best idea, especially given what’s going on in Iran.

It’s a monarchy.

not a dictatorship.

Jamal Kashoggi would disagree with you @Octavia64. He was assassinated on the orders of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman - also known as Prince Bonesaw.

Tell us you know nothing about Saudi Arabia without telling us you know nothing about Saudi Arabia....

@EmmaOfNormandy yes that’s not going so well, either (not that I want it to go well or that it was a good idea to begin with!)

It's all about keeping the baddies on your side isn't it ? Saudis love their wealthy lifestyle and don't want war. They love the Western style life. It's not as if the Taliban are being given this.
