France says that Syria’s war will lift some restrictions on Syria after the fall of the European Union Al-Assad
European countries say that they are eager to re-organize the country with war-transit and help to help build bridges with their new leaders.
French Foreign Minister says some European Union sanctions on Syria will be removed as part of a wider European Union move to help stabilize Damascus after President Bashar al-Assad’s expulsion in December. .
European Union Foreign Ministers discussed the matter in a meeting at Brussels on Monday.
French External Affairs Minister Jean-Noel Barot said, “About Syria, we are going to lift, to suspend today, to implement some restrictions on energy and transport sectors and financial institutions, which countries The financial stabilization was important, “said on arrival at the meeting in Brussels.
Al-Assad, whose family ruled Syria with an iron fist for 54 years, was topped by an electric aggressive on 8 December, leading to a sudden end for a 13-year war. The conflict left large parts of the major cities of Syria into the ruins and the vast majority of the population living in poverty.
The use of Al-Assad’s torture rooms and chemical weapons converted the country into Paria state during the war.
The United States and the European Union introduced a series of crippled sanctions on Syria in 2011, refusing to access the capital market and trade revenue. Western sanctions in influence cut Syrian’s formal economy from the rest of the world.
The European Union is now preparing to return its restrictions at the stages.
Julian Barns-Dessie, a director of the European Council on Foreign Relations, told Al Jazeera that “would be a strong sense of conditions” was implemented on lifting sanctions.
He said that the European Union wants to provide new government financial relief of Syria, while making time to determine whether the coalition will develop in a way under the leadership of former rebels Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) which human rights and democratic It corresponds to the criteria.
“The idea is to create conditions for a positive transition,” said Bars-Dessie. “But Europeans want to lock in a snap-back option, so that if HTS does not proceed with an inclusive transition, those restrictions can come back to the game.”
He also warned that it would be important to lift the sanctions imposed by the US to reduce many Syrian crises.
“The European sanctions will not be a fundamental game-changer itself. … American restrictions are actually intimidating foreign finance and international business, “he said.
Barns-Dessie said: “Moving towards reconstruction and redevelopment, you will need more European action.”
