Soviets to slow military spending amid peacetime shift
The Soviet Union announced a slowdown in defense spending as part of a policy for peace. The 1988 economic report notes a modest growth year with defense at 124 of the planned $160.55 billion expenditure and 14.2 percent of the total budget, while Western analysts link the cut to a broader push for improved Westward relations and reduced arms flow to Vietnam.
