I see these nuclear non-proliferation agreements as one sided agreements that only serve the interests of the west. I don't blame them from withdrawing. The USA has shown itself to be a bloodthirsty aggressor and I understand their defesive posturing. Nations are sovereign entities. Why shouldn't they be entitled to utilize nuclear power or develop nuclear weapons as a deterrant to being attacked?
