There was no complaint from either the Soviet Union or the PRC at the time. That was nearly thirty years ago, but I see little difference today.  

If any country could develop an atom bomb quickly it would be Japan. That is the country against which atomic weapons were used.

My list only contained countries that have been identifies as having active nuclear programs.  I suspect that Japan may already have nukes, because they very easily can.  Testing is not needed if adequate computing power can be used in its place, and Japan has adequate materials and expertise to build bombs if they choose.
