There were year-on-year increases in all the geographical areas covered by the ranking apart from Asia and Oceania, which saw a slight decrease, largely as a result of a notable drop in the total arms revenues of Chinese companies.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>ABOUT THE AUTHOR(S)\/EDITORS<\/h3>\n<div class=\"dynamic-block-fieldnode-commentary-about-the-authors field--label-hidden\">\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field-item\">\n<div class=\"views-element-container\">\n<div class=\"js-view-dom-id-4e4ee0a67713a050fc634c830e09bc3bd104236cfd0e1fbd38e954755e0cc8ac\">\n<div class=\"views-row\">\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-field-image\">\n<div class=\"field-content\">  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/lorenzo-scarazzato\" hreflang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/thumbnail\/public\/2022-09\/lorenzo_scarazzato_2.jpg?itok=tELIT98y\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Lorenzo Scarazzato\"><\/p>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-body\">\n<div class=\"field-content\"> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/lorenzo-scarazzato\" hreflang=\"en\">Lorenzo Scarazzato<\/a> is a Researcher in the SIPRI Military Expenditure and Arms Production Programme.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"views-row\">\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-field-image\">\n<div class=\"field-content\">  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/dr-nan-tian\" hreflang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/thumbnail\/public\/2024-01\/nan_tian_-_bw-3.jpg?itok=VHRABYEW\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Nan Tian\"><\/p>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-body\">\n<div class=\"field-content\"> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/dr-nan-tian\" hreflang=\"en\">Dr Nan Tian<\/a> is a Senior Researcher and Programme Director of the SIPRI Military Expenditure and Arms Production Programme.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"views-row\">\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-field-image\">\n<div class=\"field-content\">  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/dr-diego-lopes-da-silva\" hreflang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/thumbnail\/public\/2020-03\/dsc_0495-2-2.jpg?itok=kGbHqWw7\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Dr Diego Lopes da Silva\"><\/p>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-body\">\n<div class=\"field-content\"> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/dr-diego-lopes-da-silva\" hreflang=\"en\">Dr Diego Lopes da Silva<\/a> is a Senior Researcher in the SIPRI Military Expenditure and Arms Production Programme.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"views-row\">\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-field-image\">\n<div class=\"field-content\">  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/xiao-liang\" hreflang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/thumbnail\/public\/2022-01\/xiao_liang.jpg?itok=4Df57iL0\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Xiao LIANG\"><\/p>\n<p><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-body\">\n<div class=\"field-content\"> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/xiao-liang\" hreflang=\"en\">Xiao Liang<\/a> is a Researcher in the\u00a0SIPRI Military Expenditure and Arms Production Programme.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"views-row\">\n<div class=\"views-field views-field-field-image\">\n<div class=\"field-content\">  <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/about\/bios\/zubaida-karim\" hreflang=\"en\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sipri.org\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/thumbnail\/public\/2024-10\/zubaida_bw-2.jpg?itok=KisGugQe\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" alt=\"Zubaida A.
