I'd try to reason with them, but I'd ready my Special Forces at the same time, in case the talks go wrong. Steal all their research and the resources necessary to make (solar) nukes, abduct or kill the scientists (I'd prefer abduct, but if that's impossible, well shucks then, snipe 'em) and put pressure on the leader(s). But only if I'd run out of other options.

Impractical.
Stealing research in this day and age is impossible. There would be so many back-ups and copies you'd never get all of them. No point even trying that. Steal a bunch of highly refined uranium from a hostile country? Good luck. Abduct or kill the scientists? Sure, why not stoop to the level of a terrorist, which is what you'd be if you went in and started blowing people away for the sole reason that you think you're the only one with the right to have nukes.
Put pressure on a religious zealot that hates you? How? Not when they have you by the short hairs with regards to a resource you don't have enough of...
Only options; Flatten the nation. And I don't mean go in there with troops, that's doomed to failure. I mean flatten literally. As in, carpet bombing. Or stay out of it. Only practical solutions in this day and age.
