No one has clame to the moon .
Though several flags of the Soviet Union and the United States have been symbolically planted on the moon, the Russian and U.S. governments make no claims to any part of the Moon's surface. Russia and the US are party to the Outer Space Treaty, which places the Moon under the same jurisdiction as international waters (res communis). This treaty also restricts use of the Moon to peaceful purposes, explicitly banning weapons of mass destruction (including nuclear weapons) and military installations of any kind. A second treaty, the Moon Treaty, was proposed to restrict the exploitation of the Moon's resources by any single nation, but it has not been signed by any of the space-faring nations.
Several individuals have made claims to the Moon in whole or in part, though none of these claims are generally considered credible

The moon should be reserved for humans. Ideally, not a single country should own the moon. But I am afraid powerful countries who able to land its people on moon will compete for each other to land their colony on the moon.

Nobody yet at least I don't think so. Given the chance the United States will have ownership and sell out acreage to anyone who wants a quiet, reclusive lot, with no neighbors, but a great view of the universe.

I've often wondered this myself. If there was some precious metal or oil there im sure country's would fight over rights to mine it. If a country developed some type of station there for launching craft into outerspace then I think they would claim that property. So far there is nothing of value there so nobody cares at the moment.
