The stockpiling of weapons refers to the accumulation and storage of arms, ammunition, and military equipment by a country, organization, or individual. This practice can be motivated by various factors, including national defense, deterrence against potential threats, or preparation for conflict. Stockpiling can raise concerns about arms races, regional stability, and the potential for unauthorized use of weapons, particularly if oversight is lacking. International treaties, such as the Arms Trade Treaty, aim to regulate and control such stockpiling to promote peace and security.
