Global military spending is highlighted in SIPRI's Trends in World Military Expenditure, 2023 Report, which was first published in 1966. With $83.6 billion in military spending, India came in fourth place behind the US, China, and Russia. The expenditure of the NATO states came to $1341 billion, or 55% of the total worldwide. The report credits geopolitical tensions and Russia's invasion of Ukraine for the record-breaking $2443 billion in global military spending. SIPRI is primarily concerned with disarmament, armaments control, and conflict research.
