1. Developing a nuclear program carries significant risk because it gives a country the potential to develop powerful weapons that can cause catastrophic damage.
2. It is important to ensure that nuclear programs are only used for peaceful purposes, and not for making weapons.
3. Therefore, robust international oversight and regulation is essential to minimize the chance of malicious misuse of nuclear technology or materials. Such oversight should include regular inspections of all aspects of a country’s nuclear program, as well as comprehensive reporting requirements. Additionally, secure storage facilities should be set up to securely store any potentially dangerous materials produced by the program, such as plutonium and uranium.
4. In order for a countries' nuclear program to meet safety standards it must first join existing international organizations devoted towards promoting peaceable uses of nukes such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). This will allow them access technical expertise and training from other nations in order optimize safety protocols related to their specific application needs regarding fuel cycle technology options e.g., mining milling enrichment reactor design waste disposal etc..

Development of a nuclear program can have major implications for a country including the potential of being able to generate large amounts of power, reduce their carbon emissions and create jobs in the nuclear industry. It is important for countries with nuclear programs to be transparent about their program and ensure it is used only for peaceful purposes. Additionally, they should submit to international inspections and oversight so that malicious use of the program can be detected before it’s too late. This includes regular assessment by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) as well as security protocols tailored to suit individual countries' needs.
