Share this

As the world’s top conventional arms exporter with one of the most robust export control systems, the United States arguably stands to benefit more than any country from raising global arms trade standards.

See attached document.

It is part of a series of four documents on different topics related to an ATT published in July 2010: national security (Arms Control Association); industry (Center for International Trade and Security at the University of Georgia); international humanitarian law (International Committee of the Red Cross); and development (Oxfam America).
