".
The European Union code of conduct is the most complete international system for the control of arms exports.
The European Union has a positive involvement in the restriction and control of arms exports and attempts to add an ethical dimension to the arms trade.
As well as legal procedures and treaties, supplementary actions are required in order to restrict the proliferation of arms. Conflict prevention does not just involve the restriction of arms exports. In order to be effective, it must be accompanied, in the developing countries in question, by support for democracy and the liberal democratic system (the protection of civilians by the State, education aimed at creating a culture of peace, the creation of institutions to resolve conflicts through negotiation, etc.). In this context, it should be stressed that an emerging and fragile democratic regime cannot be prevented from defending itself against a rebellion that wishes to reverse it.
Additionally, the industrialised countries must also support programmes of micro-disarmament, mine-clearance, the training of security forces and legal support in their development cooperation projects."@en1
