Don't forget that, at least for the us, we give them billions of dollars with the requirement that they buy American made weapons. This results in the politicians ability to hide behind job creation and business profitability. While funneling tax payer money to the military industrial complex resulting in more wars or special operations. Instead of schools, healthcare, housing, renewable energies, exploration

Just for some numbers to go with that statement https://www.congress.gov/crs-product/RL33222
