Donald Trump and Saudi Arabia signed a 30-year agreement to share civilian nuclear power technology, which was submitted to Congress for review by Donald Trump's administration. Separately, U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright stated that the administration is considering easing sanctions on vessels that transport oil and petroleum products from countries including Iran, Russia, and Venezuela, in an effort to lower global freight rates. Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman also urged Donald Trump to de-escalate potential military action against Iran.
