Iraq Secures Deadline Delay for Weapons

The article discusses statements made by Iraqi Presidential Spokesperson Khaled al-Yaqoubi regarding the necessity of restricting weapons to the Iraqi state and the commitment of major powers, especially the United States, to refrain from interfering in Iraq's internal affairs. This comes after the extension of the deadline for the weapons handover until the end of June 2027. He explained that the issue requires commitment from every Prime Minister and aims to strengthen national sovereignty. He also pointed out that Washington initially set a final deadline of September 30, 2022, but it was extended based on understandings with the American side. Al-Yaqoubi clarified that resolving the weapons issue is hindered by complex factors, including Iraq’s history since 2003 and its struggles against Al-Qaeda and ISIS, making a solution a long and complicated process. He also noted ongoing tensions between Iran and the United States, describing Iraq’s attempt to mediate in regional conflicts as beyond its current capacities. Iraq previously tried to mediate between Iran and Saudi Arabia but currently lacks sufficient information about Iraq’s role in this regard. Additionally, he highlighted Iraq's economic struggles due to difficulties in exporting oil through the Strait of Hormuz, emphasizing Iraq’s efforts to avoid the repercussions of the confrontation between major powers. He acknowledged that playing the role of mediator under the current circumstances is difficult.
