After the three words "gun ban" came out of Li Jin's mouth, they were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Everyone's expressions changed.
Even Warwick, who had been attacking Irving just now, also frowned.
"Mr. Li Jin, is your proposal a bit radical? Although these mercenaries will indeed bring trouble to everyone, they are also required to participate in some necessary public security and military activities."
"If all of them surrender their guns, will it affect our own safety even more?"
The person who spoke was a member of a small family from the country of Iraq.
In the country of Iraq, not all forces can afford to raise their own army. This is a privilege only those big plutocrats have.
For those small families, if they want to protect their own safety in the war-torn country of Iraq, they must cooperate with mercenary groups.
As for the issue of invasion by foreign controlled mercenaries, they are not as worried as those big families.
After all, they are not like those big families with big businesses, so they don't have to focus on attacking them, and they can only rely on the mercenaries to protect their safety.
Warwick frowned at first, and then his brows gradually relaxed as if he thought of something.
"Halick, your idea is a bit naive. How can the egg be completed when all the people are together? Even if our discussion today can be kept secret for a while, it will definitely reach the ears of the United States."
"In order to destroy our alliance, they will definitely send people to sell these mercenary groups. At that time, do you think we can give more bargaining chips to the mercenary groups, or the United States can give more?"
Owen's face looked ugly at this time.
He didn't expect that Li Jin's proposal would be this.
Although he mentioned the use of troops to protect the interests of these families before, in fact he was not prepared to consume too much of his country's reserves here.
His original plan was actually to bribe some mercenary groups and let them deceive these families in the name of garrison.
Even if there is a conflict by then, it will just be dog eating dog and will not affect the interests of their Eagle Country.
And Li Jin's proposal was considered to have eliminated his plan.
Owen was about to say something when Solander's voice sounded slowly.
This time, he did not stand unconditionally with his nephew as before, but said with a solemn expression:
"It is our country's tradition that people carry guns. Will rashly pushing for a gun ban cause chaos among the people?"
Warwick said decisively:
"Uncle, whichever is the lesser of two evils, we must make a decision now."
Then several forces began to have a fierce confrontation over whether the gun ban should be implemented.
There was a moment of bickering.
Owen is naturally opposed to the gun ban proposal. After all, for him, it is more in the interest of Eagle Country to disrupt the situation.
Schulman and others are happy to see this happen. Now it has come to a critical moment to discuss the distribution of benefits. It is an established fact that Eagle Country takes the lion's share and cannot be changed, but they are very happy to see it embarrass Eagle Country even more.
.
Solander and other local factions gradually tended to agree to the gun ban under the arguments of Warwick and Li Jin.
The final meeting voted on whether to promote the gun ban, and the resolution was passed by a large margin.
However, from beginning to end, none of the people here worried that the local government would have other opinions on the gun ban.
For these people, senior government officials of their own country are more like puppets and irrelevant.
