In this task you will be given a claim and a perspective. You should determine whether that perspective supports or undermines the claim. If the perspective could possibly convince someone with different view, it is supporting, otherwise it is undermining.

Let me give you an example: claim: Music containing lyrics that glorify violent and criminal lifestyles should be banned.
 perspective: hip hop artists have a right to free speech
The answer to this example can be: undermine
Here is why: Musicians having a right to free speech clearly undermines the claim for putting constraints on their lyrics.

OK. solve this:
claim: All nations have a right to nuclear weapons.
 perspective: All countries have a right to defend themselves with nuclear weapons, even when they lack the capacity in conventional weapons
Answer:

Show your work and conclude with the exact phrasing "Therefore, the final answer is [answer]." where [answer] is just the final number or expression that solves the problem.
