rafidainscope - Intensive discussions continue between government authorities and faction leaders to resolve the issue of regulating weapons under state control. Despite frequent meetings and exchanged messages involving key political figures, a final definitive agreement has yet to be reached.

Informed sources confirmed that the file is highly complex, as some parties stipulate the complete end of all forms of foreign presence on Iraqi soil before committing to a final agreement. Expectations indicate that a shared vision might crystalize in

the upcoming period. Meanwhile, parliamentary circles stressed the importance of managing the arms regulation file within a purely national framework, free from external pressures, prioritizing the national interest while waiting for political and security understandings to mature.
