European Union to Ease Sanctions on Syria After Fall of Assad Government
ai generated text
The European Union (EU) is expected to decide on lifting sanctions on Syria, with some countries concerned about moving too fast to support the new Islamist-led government in Damascus. France's foreign minister is hopeful that an agreement on easing sanctions can be reached.
While we aim to move fast, we also are ready to reverse the course if the situation worsens, and in parallel, we will scale up humanitarian aid and recovery efforts.
What we are not relieving, of course, is anything related to arms dealing, and everything that we are still concerned about.
If the steps are going in the right direction we are also willing to take steps on our behalf.
This could give a boost to the Syrian economy and help the country get back on its feet.
Regarding Syria, we are going to decide today to lift, to suspend, certain sanctions that had applied to the energy and transport sectors and to financial institutions that were key to the financial stabilization of the country.
I will announce today that we will propose that those responsible for these arbitrary detentions may be sanctioned by the European Union in the coming months.
