Anybody who looks at the violence around the world, the violence often associated with the breakdown of States, from Somalia to Sudan, to Sierra Leone, to Afghanistan; anybody who looks at the situation created by the breakdown of States knows how much the trade and small arms is responsible for continuing the violence and making the violence far more lethal.
Quiconque analyse la violence dans le monde, la violence souvent associée à la désintégration d'États, de la Somalie au Soudan, du Sierra Leone à l'Afghanistan ; quiconque analyse la situation découlant de la désintégration d'États sait à quel point le commerce des armes de petit calibre entretient la violence et la rend nettement plus meurtrière.
