The War in Iran and Implications for the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Regime

A hypothetical war in Iran, initiated by US and Israeli airstrikes in 2025, is examined for its impact on the nuclear non-proliferation regime. The conflict's stated goal is to destroy Iran's nuclear program, but experts question its effectiveness. There is concern that the war could paradoxically prompt Tehran to actively seek nuclear weapons for future deterrence. The situation is presented as a significant challenge to the long-standing Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.
