Multilateral export control regimes

Multilateral export control regimes are international agreements among countries to regulate and restrict the transfer of sensitive goods, technology, and information that could enhance the military or strategic capabilities of certain nations. These regimes aim to prevent the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, support global security, and ensure that exports do not contribute to illegal or destabilizing activities. By coordinating policies and enforcing common standards, member countries work together to monitor and control exports, reducing the risk of technology falling into wrong hands while facilitating legitimate trade.
