The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty entered into force in 1970 with the aim of preventing the spread of nuclear weaponry. Three states, namely India, Pakistan and Israel, have denied to sign the treaty. North Korea withdrew from the NPT in 2003. Israel is known to have nuclear-capable aircraft and land-base missiles. According to The National Interest, its submarines are also nuclear capable, which would make it the only country in the world besides Russia, the US, India and China to possess a full nuclear triad.
