Global Fears: War in Iran Fuels New Arms Race – Countries with the Most Nuclear Weapons – China Accelerates Arms Development

The war in Iran is acting as a catalyst for a new arms race globally, bringing nuclear logic back to the forefront of international politics. Countries like Germany and Poland are considering acquiring their own nuclear weapons, while China and Russia are strengthening their arsenals. The United States is even considering resuming nuclear tests and providing uranium enrichment technology to Saudi Arabia, which is causing reactions. Today, nine countries possess nuclear weapons, but more than twenty have the capability to acquire them. The weakening of the international arms control system and the absence of a stable security framework are intensifying concerns about further escalation.
