Corruption in Arms Trade?

Gee, what else would you expect a peace-oriented think tank to say?

Corruption in the global arms industry is systemic and widespread, according to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (Sipri).
'Corruption in the arms trade contributes roughly 40% to all corruption in global transactions,' the think tank said in its 2011 yearbook.
The problem could be tackled by a global arms trade treaty, Sipri said.
Such a treaty should both outlaw corruption and provide mechanisms for enforcement, it said.

Wow. A treaty to outlaw corruption. Hmmmm. Makes you wonder if individual states don't have the requisite laws to be enforced? OF COURSE THEY DO!
