Arms Transfer Policy

An Arms Transfer Policy guides how a country controls the sale and distribution of weapons and military technologies to other nations. It ensures that arms exports are carried out responsibly, considering national security, international law, and the potential impact on peace and stability. The policy aims to prevent weapons from reaching groups or regimes that may use them irresponsibly or unlawfully. It involves assessing proposals, establishing conditions for transfers, and maintaining oversight to promote safe, ethical, and strategic handling of arms exports.
