摘要

This month, officials are gathering in New York to negotiate the terms of a treaty covering the trade in international arms. Speaking on 'Time for a treaty: why the arms industry must have global standards' at the IISS on 17 May, Alan Duncan, UK Minister for International Development, presented the case for the treaty to be as robust as possible. He said that while it was recognised that compromises might be needed in order to obtain agreement, the UK was going for 'the full laundry list'. Duncan said that the uncontrolled flow of weapons across borders caused millions of deaths in places such as the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Darfur region of Sudan. Imported small arms and light weapons accounted for the vast majority of deaths in such conflicts. Conflict, in turn, prevented development, because health systems and education could not flourish against the background of armed violence. Yet some countries had no arms-trade regulations at all, and there were no common international standards.
