"I would not rule out the US striking some deal to provide nuclear shield, mostly likely from naval forces, i.e. we station xx nuclear deterrence, you pay us yy for the coverage. Better than having them actually control the damn things."

Sort of nukes for oil but will they have a France among them who will not trust the US deterrent? I suspect there will be some nervousness re: US perceived racism (especially after UAE flap) to fully trust us if iran was able at some future date to hit Israel or Western Europe or even a US target.
