The nuclear arms race is sen as a metaphor, and can only be won when one country or power will control the power of the people, due to nuclear weapons.
No arms race is ever won; they either result in an actual war (which might be won or lost) or a stalemate of some kind and disarmament.
Originally, the US, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union. Later France, China, India, and North Korea. Iran has been building towards a nuclear weapon, but there is little public information on the state of completion. Iraq under Sadam Hussein did have a building program that was stopped. During WW 2 Germany had an atomic weapons program that never produced a working atomic weapon. It is generally thought that Isreal has nuclear weapons- but it has not been publicy confirmed.
