South Korea Now Openly Discussing Arming Itself With Nuclear Weapons
With confidence in the U.S. nuclear umbrella shaken, Seoul is increasingly eyeing a direct counter to the North’s nuclear weapons program."While attempting to get Washington to rethink the role of nuclear weapons in the defense of South Korea is one thing, the prospect of Seoul actually building and fielding its own nuclear weapons is potentially far more significant — and challenging.
After all, as a signatory of the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, or NPT, South Korea is currently prohibited from developing nuclear weapons. Under a separate joint declaration with North Korea dating from 1991, Seoul and Pyongyang agreed not to “test, manufacture, produce, receive, possess, store, deploy or use nuclear weapons.”
"However, the fact that North Korea has broken that agreement, with six nuclear tests since 2006, means that a precedent has at least been set on the peninsula and Seoul may seek to follow suit, especially after the abject failure of negotiations to stop or even significantly slow down Pyongyang’s nuclear weapons program.
On the contrary, the latest announcements from North Korea indicate that the country is seeking to further expand its nuclear arsenal, which is clearly aimed at the South, both literally and metaphorically."

Well, I think they could build nuclear weapons if they wanted to. They have plenty of reactors and centrifuges.South Korea Now Openly Discussing Arming Itself With Nuclear Weapons

and they will, and the world will be shocked and amazed and never once ask themselves why.
Within two years the ROK and Japan will both have or be well in the process of building nukes.

The Germans don't have the guts for it. I mean, they've closed down their civilian nuclear plants (a batshit crazy thing they did). No way they'll go nuclear.

Remember the resistance to Pershing II deployment in West Germany? Well the people in power in Germany are the people who were holding CND banners back then.

I hear you, but the Germans brought this up themselves during the Trump administration:
Should Germany Go Nuclear?
Should Germany go the route of France and the UK and develop its own independent nuclear weapons capability? Something which once seemed unthinkable is now back in the political discussion …

Will Germany Be the Next Nuclear Weapons State?
The Russian military is so degraded that there is no reason why Europe and Germany can’t provide an alternative conventional and nuclear deterrent.

The CDU would lose a lot of support. I don't know if they still have the political capital to do this, it could cost them an election. Asking is not the same as doing.I hear you, but the Germans brought this up themselves during the Trump administration:
