World military spending grows despite pandemic 162 STOCKHOLM, April 26, 2021 (BSS/AFP) – Military expenditure worldwide rose to nearly $2 trillion in 2020, defying the economic impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, researchers said Monday. Global military spending increased by 2.6 percent to $1,981 billion (about 1,650 billion euros) in 2020, when global GDP shrank 4.4 percent, according to a report from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute (SIPRI). Diego Lopes da Silva, one of report’s authors, told AFP the development was unexpected. “Because of the pandemic, one would think military spending would decrease,” he said. “But it’s possible to conclude with some certainty that Covid-19 did not have a significant impact on global military spending, in 2020 at least,” Lopes da Silva said.
