Baghdad factions' arms persist until 2028
The article discusses the efforts of the Iraqi government and Iran-backed factions regarding the issue of restricting arms outside the state. Negotiations have failed to produce an actual plan for disarmament due to political complexities and limited time until the end of 2027. Recently, there has been a decline in the government's ability to control armed groups, especially after attacks on Saudi facilities carried out by Iran-allied factions. As these factions continue to strengthen their influence, the negotiation process is increasingly linked to regional conflicts and the potential erosion of government control. The factions seek guarantees of immunity from legal pursuit and regularization of their status within institutions. Meanwhile, U.S. efforts and Zaydi's stance are characterized by challenge and relative impotence. The political circles fear that the crisis may remain unresolved, as faction influence grows and political and military pressures weaken.
