Agreed on a some level. I just would think of not gimping the whole country by banning bad things when our enemies don't do this. For example, Germany and shutting down nuclear power.

So you want the enemies to do this first? How realistic is that. Sounds like you are ok with a stale mate
Either both, via some treaty for example, or no one.

Nuclear treaties were working up till some time.

Generally diplomacy works, but you need to have both the stick and the carrot. "West" has been using only carrots for way too long.

I don't understand what your proposal is here. You talk about diplomacy but then using the "stick". So do you think enemies should be threatened with the stick if they don't shut down nuclear powers as well?
