MANILA, Philippines – A landmark agreement concerning the cooperation between the Philippines and the United States on “peaceful uses of nuclear energy” is closer to possible ratification as the Department of Justice said it does not violate any existing laws. During the signing at the sidelines of the APEC Summit in California, US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said that the deal would allow his country “to share equipment and material with the Philippines as they work to develop small modular reactors and other civilian nuclear energy infrastructure.

Provisions of the 123 Agreement “are not in conflict with aforementioned existing laws, as well as pending nuclear-related bills before Congress,” the DOJ said.
