[环球网报道]5月2日，瑞典斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所（SIPRI）发布全球军费开支最新分析报告。报告显示，2017年，世界军费开支达17390亿美元，较2016年增长1.1%，系近五年内首次增长，达冷战结束以来最高值。美国以6100亿美元军费开支位居首位，其次是中国的2280亿美元（编者注：2017年中国财政拟安排国防支出10443.97亿元，比上年执行数增长7%，与报告公布的数字存在较大差距）和沙特阿拉伯的694亿美元，而俄罗斯（663亿美元）军费开支自1998年来首次下降，居第四位。印度、法国、英国、日本、德国分别以639、578、472、454、443亿美元位列其后。
斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所最新分析报告显示，全球军费开支从1999年到2011年持续13年增长，2012年至2016年保持相对不变态势，而全球军费开支总额在2017年重新上升。报告还提到，2017年全球军费开支占全球国内生产总值（GDP）的2.2%，即每人230美元。“近几年世界军费增加的主要原因在于亚洲、大洋洲以及中东地区国家，如中国、印度和沙特阿拉伯军费开支大幅增加”，SIPRI武器和军事支出计划（AMEX）研究员田南（音译：Nan Tian）解释称，“全球范围内，军费开支显然正从欧洲—大西洋地区‘离开’。”
全球军费开支转向何处？
这份报告说，亚洲和大洋洲的军费开支连续第29年上升。中国2017年军费开支达2280亿美元，较2016年增长了5.6%；印度2017年军费开支达639亿美元，较上一年增长了5.5%；韩国2017年军费开支为392亿美元，同比增长1.7%。对此，斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所武器和军事支出计划（AMEX）高级研究员西蒙·韦泽曼将其归结于中国与周围领国的紧张局势。他说：“中国与许多领国之间的紧张局势持续推动亚洲军费开支上涨。”
俄罗斯军费开支明显下降，中西欧地区军费开支上升。SIPRI最新分析报告显示，2017年，俄罗斯军费开支为663亿美元，较2016年下降20%，这是自1998年来首次下降。“军事现代化仍是俄罗斯的优先事项，但军费预算受到该国自2014年所经历的经济问题的制约，”斯德哥尔摩国际和平研究所武器和军事支出计划（AMEX）高级研究员西蒙·韦泽曼西蒙韦兹曼如此说。
分析报告还认为，2017年中欧和西欧军费开支分别增加了12%、1.7%，部分原因在于受俄罗斯日益增长的威胁的影响。“许多欧洲国家都是北约成员国，并同意在此框架内增加军费预算”。2017年，北约全体29个成员国的军费开支总额为9000亿美元，占全球军费开支的52%。
此前全国人大新闻发言人张业遂曾表示，无论从国防预算占国内生产总值、国家财政支出的比重看，还是从人均数额看，中国的国防投入水平都低于世界主要国家。中国始终坚持走和平发展道路，奉行防御性的国防政策，中国的发展不会对任何国家构成威胁。
近年来中国适度加大国防投入，其中相当部分是弥补过去投入的不足，主要用于更新武器装备、改善军人的生活待遇和基层部队训练生活条件。（记者 朱梦颖）

[Global Network Report] On May 2, the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI) released the latest global military expenditure analysis report. The report shows that in 2017, the world military expenditure amounted to 1,739 billion U.S. dollars, an increase of 1.1% from 2016, which was the first increase in the past five years, reaching the highest value since the end of the Cold War. The United States topped US$610 billion in military spending, followed by China’s 228 billion US dollars. (Editor's note: In 2017, China’s financial plan is to arrange for defense expenditures of 1044.397 billion yuan, an increase of 7% over the previous year’s implementation, which is in contrast with the figures published in the report. (Big gap) and Saudi Arabia's 69.4 billion U.S. dollars, while Russia's (66.3 billion U.S. dollars) military spending fell for the first time since 1998, ranking fourth. India, France, Britain, Japan, and Germany were ranked 639, 578, 472, 454, and 44.3 billion U.S. dollars respectively.
According to the latest analysis report from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, global military spending has continued to increase for 13 years from 1999 to 2011, and remained relatively unchanged from 2012 to 2016, while the total global military spending has risen again in 2017. The report also mentioned that in 2017 global military spending accounted for 2.2% of the global gross domestic product (GDP), which is $230 per person. “The main reason for the increase in world military expenditure in recent years has been the substantial increase in military expenditures in Asia, Oceania, and countries in the Middle East, such as China, India, and Saudi Arabia”, said Tian Nan, a researcher at the SIPRI Arms and Military Expenditure Program (AMEX). Explained that "globally, military spending is apparently departing from the Euro-Atlantic area."
Where is the shift in global military spending?
The report said that military spending in Asia and Oceania has risen for the 29th consecutive year. China’s military expenditure in 2017 reached US$228 billion, an increase of 5.6% over 2016; India’s military expenditure in 2017 reached US$63.9 billion, an increase of 5.5% over the previous year; South Korea’s military expenditure in 2017 was US$39.2 billion, an increase of 1.7 million from the same period of last year. %. In this regard, Simon Weizeman, senior researcher of the Arms and Military Expenditure Program (AMEX) at the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, attributed it to the tensions between China and the surrounding countries. He said: "The tension between China and many other countries has continued to push up Asian military spending."
Russia’s military spending has dropped significantly, and military expenditures in Central and Western Europe have increased. SIPRI’s latest analysis shows that in 2017, Russia’s military spending was US$66.3 billion, a 20% decrease from 2016, which was the first decline since 1998. “Military modernization remains a priority for Russia, but the military budget is constrained by the economic problems that the country has experienced since 2014,” said Simon Weizemann, senior researcher at the AMEX Institute of International Peace Research, Simon Vevey. Zeman said so.
The analysis report also believes that in 2017, military spending in Central and Western Europe increased by 12% and 1.7%, respectively, due in part to the growing threat from Russia. "Many European countries are NATO members and agree to increase military budgets within this framework." In 2017, the total military expenditures of all 29 NATO member nations amounted to 900 billion U.S. dollars, accounting for 52% of the global military expenditure.
The former National People's Congress spokesperson Zhang Yesui once said that regardless of the proportion of the national defense budget in terms of GDP and state fiscal expenditure, or from the per capita amount, China’s national defense investment level is lower than the world’s major countries. China has always adhered to the path of peaceful development and pursued a defensive national defense policy. China’s development will not pose a threat to any country.
In recent years, China has appropriately increased investment in national defense, and a considerable part of it is to make up for the insufficiency of past investments. It is mainly used to update weapons and equipment, improve the living conditions of military personnel, and provide training and living conditions for grass-roots units. (Reporter Zhu Mengying)
