Washington, Oct 22: Pakistan and Saudi Arabia have concluded a secret agreement on nuclear co-operation that will provide the Saudis with nuclear weapons technology in exchange for cheap oil, the Washington Times reported today quoting a "ranking Pakistani insider." The disclosure of the Saudi-Pakistani deal came at the end of a 26-hour state visit to Islamabad last weekend by Crown Prince Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz, Saudi Arabia's de facto ruler, who flew in with a 200 strong delegation including Foreign Minister Saud al Faisal and several cabinet ministers, the Times said in a dispatch from Islamabad.
Both Pakistan and the Arabian kingdom have denied the deal.
