The UN Small Arms Conference ground into its sixth day with innumerable speeches and very little action. The President of the Conference, Ambassador Kariyawasam, from Sri Lanka, released another draft version of the Conference report.

After substantial pressure from the NRA, the Conference will not meet tomorrow, July 4!
