Keywords: | DRNTU::Social sciences::Political science | Issue Date: | 2008 | Source: | Koh, C. S. L., & Matthews, R. (2008). Russian arms sales : the other story behind Somalia's piracy. (RSIS Commentaries, No. 111). RSIS Commentaries. Singapore: Nanyang Technological University. | Series/Report no.: | RSIS Commentaries ; 111/08 | Abstract: | The piracy problem in Somali waters highlights the challenges and dilemmas facing Russia's arms exporters despite phenomenal sales growth since 2000. A combination of gactors, including fierce competition in the global defence market, may compel Russia to sell to less-demanding clients, shunned by Western defence contractors. This could potentially result in intesified geopolitical clashes between Russia and the West. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/90436 http://hdl.handle.net/10220/4518 |
