Rise in sales and purchase of arms post Russian acts threatens geopolitics
With Russia’s steps towards Ukraine, a crisis that was slowly on the rise when it comes to the violence and aggression in the region, has not hit the world in full force.
It is to be noted that the sales and purchase of arms and ammunition in recent months have increased but as soon as Russia invaded Ukraine, the statistics jumped immensely. This also means that there are all the more concerns about the geopolitical stability in and around the region.
Traders are left with no choice but to depend more on the defense sector for opportunity as that is the area which is blooming. Traders are getting benefits of the geopolitical conflicts but the conclusion seems to be far away from getting drawn.
Even before the invasion, countries , especially the United States, upped its game when it came to defense spending but after the invasion, it has magnified it to a huge extent. Russia and the US and China and the US are odd terms and that calls the Biden administration to be prepared for worst case scenarios.
