Regulating the arms trade

World Business Report

Available for over a year

The UN General Assembly has adopted the first treaty to regulate the multi-billion dollar global trade in conventional arms. We speak to a representative of the arms industry in the UK and a campaigner against the arms trade. Also in the programme: after accepting a controversial bailout deal, Cyprus' finance minister has resigned. And hardball is back in season. We look at the business of baseball. AFP / Gettyimages
