"Why do some states that claim to support non-proliferation nonetheless refuse to support non-proliferation measures, such as sanctions against Iran?

Onderco's book is an important work that informs the fields of nuclear politics and comparative foreign policy more generally." - Maria Rost Rublee, Australian National University, Australia "Michal Onderco's illuminating book describes the similarities and differences between the foreign policies of Brazil, India, and South Africa vis-a-vis the Iranian nuclear program.
