Pakistan is Italy's second-biggest arms customer. Not surprising but still interesting. What's more interesting is the fact that India has been no.1 arms supplier to Myanmar but the report seems to have overlooked the sale of JF-17 to the country, or maybe that deal has been factored into the Chinese arms exports.
 
France does not give a damn who it sells to. China's second largest supplier is france. Wonder what they bought from them ?
Also what did India buy from Canada ?
And uae has a arms manufacturing setup ? News to me.
