Based on interviews carried out in Kiev in addition to desk research, this analysis outlines the sources of illicit arms flows in Ukraine and the status of government plans or actions to counter the problem, the trafficking routes used to smuggle weapons, and key indicators of illicit arms flows in the period 2010–16. Key findings: - Ukrainian civilians possess large numbers of unregistered small arms. The conflict in the east has contributed to significant diversion and losses from national stockpiles and the proliferation of a wider array of weapons types. - The conflict and the concomitant increase in insecurity correlate with increased seizures from 2013 to 2014, although efforts to stem the proliferation of weapons have recovered only a modest number of illicit firearms. - Ukraine has no primary law regulating the manufacture, purchase, and possession of firearms and no central state register of civilian-held firearms. This makes it difficult to differentiate between legal and illegal firearms in the country—and, by extension, complicates efforts to monitor and address illicit arms flows. ------------------------------ - *Download* Measuring Illicit Arms Flows: Ukraine <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=d0bf50784b&e=b3e6d4db9c> - *More information* on country-level case studies <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=5455e8b354&e=b3e6d4db9c> - *More information* on illicit arms trafficking <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=b3a919cbad&e=b3e6d4db9c> - *More information* on the Global Partnership on Small Arms <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=cedb5ca888&e=b3e6d4db9c> - *Have your say* about Small Arms Survey publications and products: take 5 minutes to fill out our questionnaire <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=2a39dbab5d&e=b3e6d4db9c> <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=003a8d9476&e=b3e6d4db9c> Share <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=2cabbf0802&e=b3e6d4db9c> <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=11eb643bc7&e=b3e6d4db9c> Tweet <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=099f55f8f4&e=b3e6d4db9c> <http://us9.forward-to-friend1.com/forward?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=32d9f22f3d&e=b3e6d4db9c> Forward <http://us9.forward-to-friend1.com/forward?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=32d9f22f3d&e=b3e6d4db9c> <http://smallarmssurvey.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=f825e06204d5b6ec1997aed09&id=ffc3a59af3&e=b3e6d4db9c> *Please note: *Our platform for 'eAlert' email announcements - MailChimp - allows recipients to manage and update their subscriptions, and provides greater flexibility in how we communicate with you.
