La France, troisième du classement des pays exportateurs d’armement dans le monde

Selon le dernier rapport du SIPRI, les livraisons d'armes sont restées stables dans le monde sur la période 2016-2020 par rapport aux cinq années précédentes, avec une évolution contrastée selon les pays. La France, troisième exportateur mondial, a vu ses livraisons augmenter de 44% en volume en 2016-2020, ce qui représente 8,2% du marché. Plus de la moitié (59%) du volume de ces livraisons étaient destinées à trois pays : l'Inde, l'Egypte et le Qatar. Les Etats-Unis, leaders mondiaux, ont augmenté leurs livraisons, à +15%, et ont fourni des armes à 96 Etats, dont près de la moitié en volume (47%) au Moyen-Orient (24% pour la seule Arabie saoudite). Deuxième plus grand exportateur mondial avec 20% du marché, la Russie a vu ses livraisons baisser de 22%, recul essentiellement lié à la baisse de ses ventes d'armes vers l'Inde. La France se classe devant la Chine, qui a diminué de 7,8% ses exportations d'armes, et l'Allemagne, qui a, elle, augmenté ses exportations de 21% et compte la Corée du Sud, l'Algérie et l'Egypte parmi ses principaux clients.

    Statement From Acting Secretary of Defense Patrick M. Shanahan

    Under the direction of President Trump, the Department of Defense remains focused on safeguarding our nation. We have deep respect for Secretary Mattis' lifetime of service, and it has been a privilege to serve as his deputy secretary. As acting secretary of defense, I now look forward to working with President Trump to carry out his vision alongside strong leaders including the service secretaries, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the combatant commanders, and senior personnel in the Office of the Secretary of Defense. The Department of Defense continues to be one of our nation's bedrock institutions. Our foundational strength lies in the remarkable men and women who volunteer to serve our country and protect our freedoms, while making immense personal sacrifice. It is an honor to work with such a dedicated team committed to the greatness of our nation. https://dod.defense.gov/News/News-Releases/News-Release-View/Article/1722850/statement-from-acting-secretary-of-defense-patrick-m-shanahan/
