And actions take away from the credibility. The question is whether or to what level it’s worth it that they don’t acquire nuclear weapons. It’s near impossible to stop at that point ( n Korea or maybe Russia).

In the world, at least it doesn’t seem like next level craziness occurs, which would be China or Russia just giving Iran or others nuclear weapons. Maybe this is the bridge too far.
