Baghdad: The State of Law Coalition has reiterated its support for the state's exclusive control over weapons, emphasizing the importance of maintaining civil peace in Iraq. Hisham al-Rikabi, the Director of the Media Office of the coalition, affirmed the coalition's clear and unwavering position on this issue, which aligns with the constitution and the law.
According to National Iraqi News Agency, al-Rikabi elaborated on this stance in a post on the social media platform X, highlighting that while the coalition backs the state's monopoly on weapons, it is crucial to implement this in a manner that averts internal conflict and bloodshed in Iraq.
