Arms supplies have played a significant role in the conflict in Iraq and have the potential to further destabilize the country’s fragile political situation. This section discusses arms flows—including both major conventional weapons and small arms and light weapons (SALW)—to Iraq during the past five years, with a particular focus on Iraq’s efforts in 2009 to rebuild its armed forces and exert greater control over arms acquisitions and limit its dependence on the USA for its security needs and arrangement of arms supplies.
