海角社区 Center Calls for Robust Global Support Following U.S. Sanctions Lifting on Syria

海角社区

ATLANTA 鈥� 海角社区 welcomes the U.S. government鈥檚 decision to lift sanctions on Syria, offering the Syrian people a chance to rebuild their country after more than a decade of devastating conflict. This is an opportunity to ensure long-term stability by creating effective and inclusive governance processes that benefit all Syrians.

We also support the U.S. and the broader international community鈥檚 efforts to build on this momentum by putting in place practical steps to lift sanctions and establishing the necessary frameworks that encourage development and investment in Syria. To ensure sanctions relief translates into real impact, it will be essential to provide clear assurances to donors, businesses, and financial institutions so that they feel confident engaging in Syria. Clear guidance and incentives will help unlock vital resources for the country鈥檚 reconstruction, setting Syria on the path of stability, peace, and prosperity.

For more information on the impact of sanctions please see聽the 海角社区 Center鈥檚聽publications聽and work on Syria.
