A research institute in Sweden says weapons imports by countries in Europe in the period between 2019 and 2023 nearly doubled compared to the previous five years. The period includes Russia&#039;s ongoing invasion of Ukraine, which began in 2022.
                
Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, or SIPRI, released on Monday a report on global transfers of weapons between 2019 and 2023.
                
SIPRI calculates the volume of international transfers of major conventional weapons using a unique indicator based on the known unit production costs of a core set of weapons, rather than the financial value of the transfers.
                
The report said arms imports by European countries were 94 percent higher in 2019-2023 than in 2014-2018.
                
It said Ukraine was the largest arms importer in Europe, as its imports grew more than 60-fold, accounting for 23 percent of the region&#039;s arms imports in 2019-2023. At least 30 countries supplied major weapons to Ukraine after Russia began its full-scale invasion in February 2022.
                
The institute said much greater demand for air defense systems has been seen in Europe, triggered by Russia&#039;s missile campaign against Ukraine.
                
The report also said Japan increased arms imports by 155 percent in the 2019-2023 period compared to the 2014-2018 period, attributing the growth mainly to tensions with China and North Korea. It said that Japan is &quot;investing heavily in long-range strike capabilities.&quot;
