There are three stages of the nuclear deterrence: minimum level(100-500 nukes), sufficient level(1000-5000 nukes), highest level(10000-50000 nukes).
For the present economic condition for Pakistan, it should take the minimum level as the most suitable choice. Make sure to possess the ability to knock down some major metropolitans and industrial areas in US and West Europe.
Later with improved economy, Pakistan could start to think about the middle one, just like China's past experience. But for now, it is better to take the minimum level for the sake of economy and the cost of maintenance.
I have the same opinion about it. There's another thing, we all know that after Pakistan it will be China's turn, but do the Russinas know that after China uncle sam will be after them? I've serious doubt about the wisdom of the Russian leadership.They have the tendency to buy the american bogeytales.
