What I mean is that nuclear technology is more than 60 years old now, and I guess there is a pretty good understanding of how to build nuclear weapons, and how to make ballistic missiles. So what exactly stops countries from secretly developing them in remote facilities?

For one plenty of nations spend a fortune on spying and espionage so there’s not a whole lot of secrets out there. You’re talking about building an actual nuclear weapon not a dirty bomb so a nation would need to enrich nuclear material. The Iranians were working on building nukes for many years, but the Americans and the Israelis did a good job of sabotaging these efforts.
So maybe a nation does produce a couple nukes and starts waving their dick on the International stage. They can’t use them, other nations would glass them. They’d wind up like North Korea, sanction to death.
