Involving ourselves with a country's nuclear program serves the purpose of..wait for it, being involved in their nuclear program. As opposed to letting noko or china or russia run the circus.
It's a pretty big ask on our end, our private nuclear sector isn't even remotely competitive with russia or chinas state offer. The only reason to get in bed with us is to build the relationship outside of that specific program and to lean on our expertise. All of which comes with a hefty price tag in dollars, politically, and practically.
I suppose that with the dipshits currently running things (into the ground) a particularly short sighted despot might imagine that the bad old good times could last forever.,.....but I think you might have a better understanding of the consequences of inviting us into your house than that. Dirtbag admins come and go.....american presence, OTOH, is stubbornly persistent.
