According to a report by the Stockholm-based SIPRI peace research institute, Germany has overtaken China to become the fourth largest exporter of major weapons. Nearly a quarter of German deliveries went to Ukraine, while Europe as a whole has tripled its imports. The rise is driven primarily by the war in Ukraine and uncertainties about US support in NATO.
A new report shows China's arms imports fell 72% from 2021 to 2025, as the country turns to domestic production. Meanwhile, neighbors in Asia and Oceania have increased weapons purchases amid fears over China's intentions.
