Opinions
Al-Yamamah
Commenting on the Al-Yamamah arms trade before the Foreign Affairs Select Committee, Dr Robert Dover and Professor Mark Phythian of the University of Leicester called it “a strategically important liaison relationship that provides hard and soft intelligence to the UK, and in providing the UK with the retention of some influence and so diplomatic advantage in the Middle East.”[6]
Publications
Robert Dover has published several academic papers. He has "a long-standing interest in the study of the international arms trade, and its relationship to political power." In 2012, he contributed to Defence and Security in a Cold Economic Climate: The Impact on Conflict and Competition, a volume edited by IfS director, Chris Donnelly. [7]
