The European Union raises all sanctions against Syria to accelerate postal-Azad recovery
AdvertisementThe European Union on Tuesday agreed to raise all the sanctions against Syria, to facilitate access to financial funds and to rescue the country in December after the downfall of Bashar al-Assad’s dictatorship in December.
“We want to help the Syrian people to rebuild a new, all of them and restore the peaceful Syria. The European Union has always supported the Syrians over the last 14 years.
When Donald Trump visited the Middle East, he met Syria’s interim leader Ahmed al-Shorah and announced a plan to remove all the sanctions imposed by the US.
“I will order to end the sanctions against Syria and give them a chance to be great,” Trump said in Saudi Arabia.
Trump’s sudden change has significantly accelerated the calendar in Brussels.
At the end of February, the European Union approved the first series of relief measures for Syria, including the Energy Department, which was important to collect state revenue. But despite the continuous Apos of Damascus, various restrictions have been practiced for the financial and banking sectors.
“There is no justification for maintaining them,” al-Shara said after a meetingWith French President Emmanuel Macron.
Humanitarian organizations also asked for additional relief, arguing that Assad’s era actions create an inhibitory effect on preventing danger -out investors.
When foreign ministers unanimously voted to abolish all sanctions, the domestic work was completed on Tuesday night.
Upon arrival at the meeting, Kallas agreed that the al-Shara-led new government was going in the right direction, following the violent incidents in the country, including the Said forces and the Al-Azad faith. Kallas had already warned that al-Shara’s administrator could reinstall sanctions if he returned to his addition and diversity.
“I think we have no choice,” Kallas said when asked about the relief of sanctions.
“One thing we give them the opportunity to ensure the country or we don’t. We have something like that in Afghanistan.”
However, the agreed suspension on Tuesday is not a blank test.
This block will maintain strict restrictions on weapons, chemicals, dual use materials, equipment that can be used for repression and monitoring software and a comprehensive black list of those involved in al-Assad’s autocratic authorities.
The sanctions imposed on Syria are one of the most complex regimes that Brussels have so far built and led to the collapse of the economic ties between the EU and Syria. In 2023Syria Black was classified as the 143rd business partner of the Black, with commercial leaps 396 million euros.
The EU is Syria’s largest international donor, which has contributed nearly 37 billion euros since 2011.
