The Secretary of State may not provide to the President, and the President may not submit to Congress, a Nuclear Proliferation Assessment Statement described in subsection a. of section 123 of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954 ( 42 U.S.C. 2153 ) with respect to a proposed cooperation agreement with any country that has not signed and implemented an Additional Protocol with the International Atomic Energy Agency, other than a country with which, as of June 19, 2019, there is in effect a civilian nuclear cooperation agreement pursuant to such section 123. The limitation under subsection
(a)shall be waived with respect to a particular country if— the President submits to the appropriate congressional committees a request to enter into a proposed cooperation agreement with such country that includes a report describing the manner in which such agreement would advance the national security and defense interests of the United States and not contribute to the proliferation of nuclear weapons; and there is enacted a joint resolution approving the waiver of such limitation with respect to such agreement. In this section, the term appropriate congressional committees means— the congressional defense committees; the Committee on Energy and Commerce, the Committee on Foreign Affairs, and the Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence of the House of Representatives; and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, the Committee on Foreign Relations, and the Select Committee on Intelligence of the Senate.
