They bank rolled Pakistan's not party to the treaty? Sorry I can't parse this sentence.

Did you munge two sentences i.e. Saudi Arabia bankrolled Pakistan's nuclear weapons, and also Pakistan is not party to the treaty?

My bad, it's late in the evening here and I typed something that works when spoken with emphasis and timing (at least in my head).

I added quotes, it should say that Pakistan's weapons program is one that is outside the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty as Pakistan is not a party to it.
