叙利亚因此在朝鲜的协助下试图发展核计划（这项计划有可能被以色列2007年未公开承认的“果园行动”所摧毁 ） 。 除非制定全方位计划解决伊朗身为地区强国的关注并确保美国不对伊斯兰政权采取行动，否则伊朗绝不会考虑放弃核保险政策。
That is why Syria, with North Korean assistance, tried to develop a nuclear program (presumably destroyed by Israel’s officially unacknowledged “Operation Orchard” in 2007).Iran will not consider abandoning its nuclear insurance policy unless a broad agenda is agreed upon that addresses Iran’s concerns as a regional power and secures the immunity of its Islamist regime from American actions.
