Foreign Media: UK's Arms Exports Reach 40-Year High This Year

Report Content

参考消息网12月28日报道 据拉美社12月27日报道,欧洲媒体27日报道称,英国2025年武器出口额突破200亿英镑,创下40年来最高纪录。

英国武器出口的核心订单包括向挪威出售护卫舰和向土耳其出口战斗机,其中最引人注目的是价值100亿英镑的至少5艘26型护卫舰协议,以及80亿英镑的20架“台风”战斗机合同。

受访专家指出,此次武器出口热潮反映出国际关系军事化程度不断加深,同时体现出英国已将国防工业置于外交政策的优先位置。

分析人士称,英国已与法国、德国、西班牙共同签署一项国防出口管控协议,此举旨在简化对盟国的武器销售流程。

在全球军费开支普遍增加、地缘政治紧张局势持续升级的背景下,这一纪录进一步巩固了英国在全球军火市场的主要参与者地位。

报道认为,英国政府的这一举措,既彰显其推动本国军事工业基础发展的战略意图,也体现出加强欧洲内部国防合作的政策导向。(编译/韩超)
