Taking note of the legitimate trade and use of certain conventional arms, inter alia, for recreational, cultural, historical and sporting activities and lawful ownership where such ownership and use are permitted and protected by law, Recognizing the active role that non-governmental organizations and civil society can play in furthering the object and purpose of this Treaty, and Acknowledging that regulation of the international trade in conventional arms should not hamper international cooperation and legitimate trade in materiel, equipment and technology for peaceful purposes,

The inherent right of all States to individual or collective self-defence; 2. The settlement of international disputes by peaceful means in such a manner that international peace and security, and justice, are not endangered; 3. To refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, or in any other manner inconsistent with the purposes of the United Nations; 4. Non-intervention in matters which are essentially within the domestic jurisdiction of any State; 5. The duty to respect and ensure respect for international humanitarian law and to respect and ensure human rights; 6. The responsibility of all States, in accordance with their respective international obligations, to effectively regulate and control international transfers of conventional arms, as well as the primary responsibility of all States in establishing and implementing their respective national export control systems; 7. States Parties should respect the legitimate interests of States to acquire conventional weapons for legitimate self-defence and peacekeeping operations and to produce, export, import and transfer conventional arms; and 8. The necessity to implement this Treaty consistently and effectively and in a universal, objective and non-discriminatory manner.
