The report states the depleting national security of many countries in Europe and the Middle East due to corrupt arms dealers and smuggling of firearms. Beginning with the menace of the firearms trafficking and the fatalities caused by arms and weapons. We dwell on the major causes of arms smuggling, and lastly, the recent cases of illegal arms dealers who hold some reputation in the society/international arms trade market, yet have involved themselves in war-crimes and illegal activities. The focus is to highlight the damages done by illegal arms dealers like Tony Abi Saab and others. As per the recent data of the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), the number of violence in new locations and the number of armed rebel groups engaged in violence has risen since 2017.
The world has not many peaceful places to live, with constant violence, killings, conflict and wars, normal livelihood has taken a backseat. These nuisances are made possible by the side actors Illegal arms dealers's who are causing more damage to the peace than terrorists themselves as they are supporting both sides in the conflict.
Illicit arms trafficking fuels civil wars, contribute to sky-rocketing crime rates and feeds the arsenals of the world's worst terrorists. The smuggling of small arms and light weapons is increasing rapidly, which is a matter of concern globally. Small Arms Survey in 2005 reveals that the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons is estimated 60-90% of over 100,000 conflicts deaths each year:
1. Stemming the flow of these weapons is incredibly difficult.
2. Unlike weapons of mass destruction, small arms and many light weapons have legitimate military, law enforcement, and sporting and recreational uses.
3. And their uses preclude the types of outright bans on manufacture, stockpiling and the sales.
The report is an attempt to highlight the cruel intentions of illegal arms dealers and the risk surrounding the trafficking of arms.
