Did the US try to prevent Pakistan from developing nuclear weapons? Diplomatically, through economic pressure or through illegal interventions, common to the US, such as sabotage, acts of terror etc? If not, how come? Was it not perceived a threat to their strategic geopolitical interests?

Given its extreme and uninterrupted history of interventionalism and interfering with the affairs of other sovereign states, it seems surpring that the US and its ally Israel would allow a majority Muslim state to own nuclear weapons. Did CIA try and failed, or was America on the same page with Pakistan on this one? If yes, how come?
