The agreement does not include the „Gold Standard“ that would block the kingdom from enriching uranium and reprocessing spent nuclear ​fuel, both of which are potential pathways to nuclear weapons, said the sources familiar with the agreement.

The agreement also does not ⁠include ⁠the „Additional Protocol“ which grants the U.N.‘s ⁠International Atomic Energy Agency ​broad and more intrusive oversight of a country‘s nuclear activities, such as the power to carry out snap inspections at ​undeclared locations, said the sources, who ⁠spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive issues.
