Arms Trade Treaty

Ryan’s position on this issue is unknown.

Arms Sales to Saudi Coalition

Ryan explicitly supports ending arms sales and military support to the Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen.
Response to Council on Foreign Relations questionnaire, July 30, 2019
“The war in Yemen is a humanitarian catastrophe that is hindering our international fight against terrorism and undercutting our need for diplomatic pragmatism. We need to stop logistical and fiscal support to Saudi Arabia immediately. We cannot continue to be complicit in the killing of innocents and we cannot be tied to crimes of the Saudi government. They’re our allies and I will support their interests, but I cannot support their war in Yemen.”

Firearms Export Oversight

Ryan’s position on this issue is unknown. He supports banning assault-style weapons domestically, but has not directly referenced their sale abroad. However, he cosponsored a measure in the house aimed at proliferation of so-called “ghost guns”.
