Coverage and method

SIPRI’s published military-budget observations as a percentage of GDP for the same calendar year. The country is marked as adopted budgets, rather than actual expenditure.

Historical adopted-budget observations with gaps, not verified execution. The isolated 2018 cell is highly uncertain and conflicts with SIPRI’s note that information stops in 2003. No current spending trend is inferred.
