France agrees to cooperate with Gulf states to develop nuclear energy

France agreed in principle to work with the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) on the peaceful development of nuclear energy, said a spokesman for the French Foreign Ministry on Thursday.

The statement came after the six member states of the GCC — Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman — decided to launch a plan on the peaceful use of nuclear energy.
