What does Sokolski conclude about Iran's civilian nuclear program?
a. As a sovereign nation, Iran has the right to develop its own domestic energy programs without interference from outside powers. b. The United States would enhance its own prestige in the Middle East by allowing Iran to develop a civilian nuclear program while also warning it sternly that a weapons program will not be tolerated. c. Allowing Iran to develop it would allow the country to quickly develop nuclear arms while maintaining an aura of international respectability. d. Allowing Iran to develop it would provide the surest means of promoting stability in the region, although the country would have to make strong guarantees to keep its program civilian. e. If Iran created such a program, it would contribute to the gradual development of civilian nuclear power programs elsewhere, and by undermining the world's dependency on fossil fuels, it undermines Iran's own international influence.
