 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

This resolution expresses the sense of the Senate that

  • the establishment of a regional nuclear fuel bank should be part of a comprehensive plan for confronting nuclear nonproliferation in the Middle East;
  • the United States should implement a policy that guarantees that any Middle East state that forgoes domestic uranium enrichment and reprocessing can purchase fuel for its commercial nuclear reactors from an international nuclear fuel bank; and
  • the United States should seek bilateral and multilateral nuclear cooperation agreements with various Middle Eastern states, including Iran, that include a commitment by states to forgo domestic uranium enrichment and reprocessing of spent fuel.
