Al-Sudani to the Tribes: There is no justification for the presence of any weapon outside government institutions

During his attendance at a tribal gathering, al-Sudani said: "Iraq is facing internal and external challenges, and there are a set of principles from which we start, and that is to restrict weapons in the hands of the state, the authority of law, and combating corruption, which are terms called for by the religious authority, social and popular activities, and we cannot be lenient in applying them, nor do they mean targeting any entity or individual."
He added: "In light of the stable situation, there is no justification for the presence of any weapon outside institutions, and the tribes must support the authority of law and the judiciary, and the government has committed in its program to end the presence of the international coalition to fight ISIS, after the need for it has ceased."
Al-Sudani also emphasized that the Iraqi government "does not want Iraq to have a rupture with the countries of the region and the world, and Iraq cannot be placed in isolation."
He affirmed the "role of society, led by the Iraqi tribes, in shaping political life and ending suffering, and this role is growing in all social fields, and confronting tribal disputes and dangerous phenomena such as drugs."
