Stockholm International Peace Research Institute

The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) is an independent international institute dedicated to research into conflict, armaments, arms control and disarmament. Founded in 1966, SIPRI provides data, analysis and recommendations, based on open sources, to policymakers, researchers, media and the interested public. SIPRI's research is relevant to current global concerns, as reflected in recent news articles. These articles highlight issues such as Israel's nuclear doctrine, North Korea's aggressive rhetoric towards South Korea, the Doomsday Clock's proximity to midnight due to global conflicts and emerging technologies like AI, and potential lessons China might draw from Ukraine's drone warfare tactics. SIPRI's work is crucial for understanding these complex and interconnected challenges to international peace and security, offering insights into arms proliferation, conflict dynamics, and the impact of new technologies on warfare.
