With Russia's help, Arab states speeding up nuclear arms race

Using Russian knowledge and technology, more and more countries in the Middle East and North Africa are building nuclear power plants, and not just for civilian purposes; according to Dr. Shaul Shay of IDC Herzliya, this is also the Sunni Arab world's way of dealing with the Iranian nuclear program.

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) will be the first state to operate a nuclear reactor (made in South Korea). Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Sudan, Tunisia and Algeria are expected to follow in its footsteps, having declared their intention to build nuclear reactors. Each of these countries is in the process of implementing the plan.

Russia's growing involvement in the Arab world's nuclear arms race, Dr. Shay believes, has to do with Putin's efforts to restore Russia's position as a world power in the Middle East. Putin sends Russian advisors and exports to every country that has signed such an agreement with him, thereby reinforcing his ties with the Arab world.

Oh how cute, ugly islamic shitholes are going nuclear

This is a big problem for the world, all these countries only exist, breath, eat and shit thanks to their oil. With Egypt being the biggest ugliest overpopulated shithole of them all, relying on international aid to feed its exploding population.

None of these countries have a future, the oil will run out and then the entire region will turn into what Syria is today. Only armed with nuclear weapons.

Putin is playing with the faith of the world by giving them the technology. In my opinion Mr Putin is an old man, and maybe its time for him to have a heart attack or so.

The main lesson of the modern history has been: do not give white man's toys to savages, they are unworthy of it, they should never have it. But Mr Putin is lost in his narcissistic fantasies it seems, apparently anything is fine for as long as his country's influence grows.

Needless to say that nuclear armed islamic world presents a clear danger not just for the region and for Israel but for the entire world.

We need to protect ourselves , that so far the only good thing Russia is doing.

Lol, Putin is just as a shill as his American counterpart, Trump. Russians aren't one of the brightest people in Europe. The nuclear reactors aren't going to be used for weaponry but rather for energy.

Thats quite an arrogant statement. The region still has an ocean of gas/oil to produce electricity yet theres sudden common interest to build very expensive nuclear reactors.

The world should be very concerned. Israel bombed the Iraqi reactor in 1981 and the Syrian reactor in 2007. Israel is a tiny nation and will not be able to keep the arabs without nukes indefinitely.

Arrogant? Look who's talking. The nuclear reactors are used for energy purposes only. What's your ethnicity/nationality btw? The Israeli Samson option should be alarming for those living in Europe, and Israel refused to have foreign inspection into it's nuclear program let alone signing a deal with Iran which Iran did.

Everyone should destroy their nuclear weapons, unless you want to start a future nuclear armageddon

Indeed, and the nuclear reactor in Abu Dhabi is going to be used only for energy purposes which can lower the costs of electricity.

Lets hope, the Iranian government said the same but we all know they are developing nuclear weapons. In theory those nuclear weapons wouldn't be touched by I don't trust our current lunatic government, the next thing they might propose is to nuke Israel or Saudi Arabia lol.

I seriously doubt it. I'm more worried about Israel and Saudi Arabia's unholy coalition against Bashar and other countries and regimes that are fighting against terrorism in the region than the other way around. Only time will tell.

Sand niggers should not have this marvellous white man's tech. Period.
Israel is culturally European, everyone with one brain cell knows this, especially those who visited it. All they want is to be left alone, they dont have problems with any islamic country, however these shitholes around them do have a problem with Israel which is utterly retarded.
