As the exposure of media is getting higher and world is becoming more connected, the race of survival has taken many turns. In todays world, economic and technological power is the key to success. More and more countries are jumping into nuclear programs and technical warfare.
UAE is one such country who has signed a pact with United States to start a civilian nuclear power plant.
Under this pact, a nuclear power plant will be installed. However, the pact aims for peaceful and cooperative spread of nuclear energy. It is in accordance with US legislations.
UAE is bound to import fuel and not to produce itself for the power plant. UAE will be bound to not enrich uranium or reprocessing of consumed nuclear fuel. UAE is among the Gulf nations who have strategic issues with Iranian Nuclear Program. The power plant in UAE will primarily serve the increasing electricity demands.
