This is stupid, its like saying you dont want to use airplanes for war.
Your never going to suppress technology especially technology for people to kill each other.

Do all countries have nuclear weapons?

No because these are strategic level weapons where a single one of them can cause mass destruction. Thus countries try to prevent each other from getting them.
If tomorrow the US told the world that you cant make drones everyone would give them a middle finger. Its like saying you cant make guns, cant make jets, or cant make tanks.

The only thing stopping some countries from having nuclear weapons is other countries with nuclear weapons. Maybe not all countries will have killer drones, but some probably will. Yes, in theory you could use nuclear blackmail to enforce a global ban on killer drones, for a while, but at some point someone will call the bluff. Nuclear weapons are just too blunt as a pressure tool, and military drones make too much sense to stay banned for long, being so versatile and precise in avoiding civilian casualties, especially compared to nuclear weapons.
