Summary/Abstract: The adjustments of the international system to the challenges of globalisation illustrates the reason for which it is necessary a new approach of security. This new approach must start from the control and supervision of international trade with conventional armament. In this respect, the ONU Treaty on international trade with conventional armament will contribute to the reduction of the risk that the international transfers of conventional weapons serve to committing the most serious crimes on the planet, mainly terrorism, genocide, crimes against humanity or war crimes. The ONU treaty on international trade of conventional armament will impose global standards advanced by the ruling of weapon trade and by the responsibility of the states involved, with a view to eradicate the illicit trade of conventional armaments, estimated on 70 billion USD annually. The observance of such standards by all the states of the world will provide security and stability, both on global, and regional level, by performing a forecast of the weapon trade.
