INFOGRAPHICS
NATO, EU and their allies account for the lion’s share of the global weapons sales with the United States being the unquestionable leader. Non-western countries taken together (including Russia and China) sell five times less weapons globally. The measure used is SIPRI TIV, which measures transfers of military capability rather than the financial value of arms transfers. All data is for December 2022 except for Serbia and Indonesia (December 2021).
