Answer to Question 1

True

Answer to Question 2

The arms race is the buildup of weapons and armed forces by two or more states that
threaten each other, with the competition driven by the conviction that gaining a lead is
necessary for security. Disarmament is the agreements to reduce or destroy weapons
or other means of attack.
Arms control are the multilateral or bilateral agreements to contain arms races by
setting limits on the number and types of weapons states are permitted.
