mniraq - Political and media reports indicate that the government may be leaning towards postponing the deadline, originally set for the end of September, to resolve the issue of confining arms strictly to the state. Data suggests that recent political developments and high-level regional visits to the capital have provided factions opposing the arms surrender plan with more leverage to demand a delay in these measures. Although official statements theoretically still point to the predetermined deadline, observers note that they have lost their strict binding tone, opening the door to possibilities of extending the grace period or re-evaluating the mechanisms for addressing the issue of uncontrolled weapons.
