NYALA Off-White x Nike Vapormax Bianche Scontate , Sudan, Sept. 23 (Xinhua) -- Sudanese government's plant to collect arms from local residents and armed groups in Darfur has gained initial results, officials have said.

The plan, launched in August, is designed to eliminate one of the main causes of instability in the war-torn region.

No doubt Off-White x Nike Vapormax Nere Bianche Scontate , many obstacles still exist to the implementation of the plan. Owning weapons is part of the culture and tradition for Darfur residents, and the armed groups and irregular military forces are unwilling to surrender their weapons.

Nevertheless, local officials in Darfur region said that initial indications showed positive response by local resident to the arms collection plan.

Despite some difficulties in executing the arms collection plan in Darfur, Faki reiterated the government's determination to achieve the plan's goal of making Darfur free of arms.

""We expect some to intend to hide their weapons or sell them to parties outside Sudan by taking advantage of the joint border between Darfur and some neighboring countries, but in the end the plan will achieve the main objective which is the disappearance of armed manifestations in Darfur,"" the governor said.

Meanwhile, most of the Sudanese forces are participating in the arms collection campaign in Darfur.

""We are contributing to the arms collection campaign in all Darfur states air max tn scontate ,"" Major General Essam-Eddin Saleh Fidail, second commander of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), an affiliate to the Sudanese army, told reporters at Um Al-Qura area in South Darfur State Saturday.

Hamid Abdalla Hammad, deputy chairman of the ruling National Congress Party (NCP) in South Darfur State, told Xinhua that the reasons behind the citizens' positive response is because the residents there have become reassured that there is stability and the rebellion has declined.

Salah Abbaker, a resident from South Darfur State, told Xinhua that he supports the arms collection campaign, as the spread of arms was one of the reasons of Darfur conflict.

""Collection of arms will benefit the citizens and contribute to the stability and development of Darfur. We support the arms collection campaign air max 97 undefeated scontate ,"" said Abbaker.
