Abstract

This research undertakes a comprehensive examination of the nuclear ambitions of Iran and Pakistan, with a specific focus on their far-reaching implications for global security and non-Islamic communities. By tracing the historical context and motivations underlying these nations' nuclear pursuits, this study sheds light on the complex dynamics driving their nuclear ambitions.

A critical analysis of the consequences of Iran and Pakistan's nuclear programs reveals the multifaceted threats they pose to regional and global stability. The specter of nuclear proliferation, the exacerbation of terrorism, and the emergence of cybersecurity risks are among the key challenges examined in this research.

This study contributes to the existing body of literature by providing a nuanced understanding of the intersection between Iran and Pakistan's nuclear ambitions and their impact on global security. The research also explores the efficacy of diplomatic efforts in mitigating these threats, highlighting the need for sustained international cooperation to address the challenges posed by these nations' nuclear pursuits.
