Nixon pledges US aid to Egypt for peaceful nuclear power
President Nixon announced a U S program to aid Egypt in developing peaceful nuclear power by the early 1980s and to fund reconstruction and modernization across agriculture industry and science. He spoke in Cairo with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and outlined safeguards under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty while negotiating fuel and reactor sales and joint committees to review projects in Washington. The plan includes restoration of the Suez Canal and cultural exchanges, with Egypt to send King Tut treasures to the United States for exhibition.
