Egypt approves Saudi Arabia cooperation agreement on nuclear power
2016-05-28
[AlAhram] Egypt's cabinet approved on Thursday a deal with Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil profits run out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
 regarding peaceful cooperation on nuclear power, according to a cabinet blurb.

The deal was initially signed on 8 April during a visit by Saudi's King Salman
...either the largest species of Pacific salmon or the current Sheikh of the Burnin' Sands, Cutodian of the Two Holy Mosquesand Lord of Most of the Arabians....
 Abdel Aziz to Cairo.

The agreement aims to establish cooperation in peaceful uses of nuclear power and on nuclear security, according to the release.

Egypt's government is moving ahead with plans to build the country's first nuclear power plant, expected to be completed in 2022 and operational by 2024.
Couple inshallah construction and maintenance with Master Religionist attitudes and Saudi talk about seeking nuclear weapons to offset Iran's, and the view is terrifying.
The plant, located in Dabaa in the coastal governorate of Marsa Matrouh, will eventually generate a total of 4,800 megawatts through four reactors.

Last week, President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi approved a $25 billion loan from Russia to fund the building and operation of the plant.

Egypt and Saudi Arabia are already working on connecting their power grids through a $1.6 billion deal, approved by Egypt's cabinet in January 2015, where they would share 3,000 megawatts of electricity by 2017.

During King Salman's visit, Egypt and Saudi Arabia also signed final loan agreements worth over $24 billion.

#1  I like it.
Another 10 year project that will stretch to 15 thru regime changes then not come to closure or activation AND will cost Russia $25B with issues of repayment.
Not really on the Nile though.
