SIPRI and the Stimson Center to host event on arms transfers in a changing global order

On 11 March, SIPRI and the Stimson Center will host a virtual discussion on the geostrategic implications of recent trends in global arms transfers. Under the title ‘The Re-making of International Security: Arms Transfers Trends in a Changing Global Order’, the event will feature newly released SIPRI data on recent trends in international arms transfers.

Amidst an increasingly unsettled global environment, fears about deteriorating security are raising questions about the durability of international partnerships and the relationships fuelling military power. Together with Elias Yousif, Fellow and Deputy Director of the Conventional Defense Program, Stimson Center, Siemon T. Wezeman, SIPRI Senior Researcher, will discuss how arms transfers reflect uncertainty in a global order. Rachel Stohl, Senior Vice President of Research Programs and Director of the Conventional Defense Program at the Stimson Center, will moderate the discussion.
