Bush released a statement Friday in which he determined the deal with the United Arab Emirates would promote national security.

The deal, a cooperation agreement between the US and the UAE, would have the UAE develop peaceful nuclear energy. The UAE also said it would import fuel for any nuclear reactor it builds and would not enrich uranium within the country itself.
