> That's speculation. Since you name NK that's a clear example of a country having nuclear deterrent actually saving the region from a conflict.

So, I have an honest (non rhetorical) question: Was NK saved more by having their own nukes, or by sharing a land border with China who has nukes and doesn't want the US getting involved in the area?

I have a question: why did China allow NK to develop nukes?

North Korea deterrent has always been the amount of artillery 50 km from soul.

Nuclear weapons can target, the US based on the region, sure. But NK does not need nukes to reduce the south Korean capital to rubble.
