Two election postponements reflect weak implementation of that deal, as well as the difficulty of addressing its shortcomings. Leaders have vowed to forge a new consensus and hold the elections by mid-April 2008 but have yet to address the problems that led to past delays or tackle crucial remaining issues such as security sector reform.
