GCC – Japan negotiations make progress in sealing free trade agreement
Saudi Gazette report TOKYO — The second round of negotiations for the Free Trade Agreement between the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and Japan wrapped up in the Japanese capital Tokyo on Friday. The negotiations took place from June 30 to July 4, have been instrumental in working out major provisions of a free trade agreement between the two sides in the near future. A government delegation led by the General Authority of Foreign Trade attended the negotiations. The discussions covered several topics, including goods, technical barriers, terms of services, financial and telecommunications services, movement of natural persons, intellectual property, dispute settlement, general provisions, rules of origin, and trade facilitation. During this round, proposed texts were reviewed by both the Gulf and Japanese sides, with a focus on exploring trade opportunities, fostering trust and partnership, and identifying areas of cooperation and coordination. These efforts pave the way toward reaching a comprehensive final agreement in the upcoming rounds. Deputy Governor of the General Authority for International Organizations and Agreements and Head of the Saudi Negotiating Team Farid Al-Asali said that the discussions addressed several topics of mutual importance. He expressed optimism about completing the remaining negotiation rounds and reaching an ambitious agreement that provides preferential access to goods and services. This, he said, would help increase the volume of trade between the two sides, reflect the depth of economic ties, reinforce investment cooperation, and support the Kingdom's Vision 2030. During a meeting with the Saudi Ambassador to Japan Dr. Ghazi Binzagr, Al-Asali emphasized that the free trade negotiations with Japan align with the Kingdom's commitment—alongside other GCC countries—to strengthening trade relations with Japan and advancing the goals of the Saudi-Japanese Vision 2030. The Saudi delegation, headed by the General Authority of Foreign Trade, includes representatives from the Ministry of Energy, Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture, Ministry of Investment, Ministry of Economy and Planning, Saudi Food and Drug Authority, Saudi Authority for Intellectual Property, Saudi Standards, Metrology and Quality Organization, Saudi Export Development Authority, Communications, Space and Technology Commission, Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority, and the Saudi Central Bank.

Saudi Arabia is among world's top donors with assistance worth SR528 billion
Saudi Gazette report RIYADH — The Saudi Aid Platform has revealed that the total value of financial assistance provided by Saudi Arabia to around the world is amounted to approximately SR528.4 billion ($140.9 billion), cementing the Kingdom's position as one of the largest donors globally. The Saudi official platform revealed that Egypt topped the list of countries that benefited most from Saudi aid, with a total of $32.49 billion, followed by Yemen with $27.69 billion, and then Pakistan with $13.19 billion. The list of countries that benefited the most also included Syria: $7.53 billion; Iraq: $7.33 billion; and Palestine: $5.37 billion. These figures reflect the Kingdom's commitment to its humanitarian and development role by supporting peoples and countries in confronting humanitarian crises and natural disasters, and achieving sustainable development. These efforts are part of the realization of Saudi Vision 2030 goals that focus on strengthening international partnerships and establishing the Kingdom as a pillar of regional and international peace and stability, under the leadership of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman and Crown Prince and Prime Minister Mohammed bin Salman. It is noteworthy that the Saudi Aid Platform is the precise electronic reference for the Kingdom's foreign contributions. The platform is divided into three categories: humanitarian, development and philanthropic projects, contributions to international organizations and bodies, and visitors' services (refugees living inside the Kingdom). The Saudi Aid Platform, inaugurated by King Salman in 2018, highlights the size and type of assistance provided by Saudi Arabia. The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief) re-launched this platform. Due to the multiplicity of Saudi donor entities, this platform has become an imperative and effective tool for collecting, coordinating and documenting statistics on international assistance provided by the Kingdom to countries and people in need around the world.

Syria rules out foreign borrowing as central bank hails post-Assad recovery
DAMASCUS — The Governor of the Central Bank of Syria, Abdul Qader Husariya, confirmed on Friday that Syria will not resort to borrowing from international institutions, as the country begins to emerge from years of conflict following the collapse of the Assad regime. 'Syria, by order of President Ahmad al-Sharaa, will not resort to external debt, nor will there be any borrowing from the International Monetary Fund or the World Bank,' Husariya said in remarks published by state news agency SANA. Husariya noted that the Syrian pound has appreciated by 30% since the downfall of Bashar Al-Assad's regime in late 2024, signaling increased economic stability. He ruled out any move to peg the national currency to the US dollar or euro, stating that the government aims to foster a production-driven economy supported by exports, rather than high interest rates or speculative investments. 'The investment environment is now qualified to provide stable returns for investors,' he said, describing the recovery as the first time in seven decades that all sectors of the Syrian economy have reactivated fully. The comments come in the wake of President Donald Trump's June 30 executive order lifting longstanding U.S. sanctions on Syria. That move was followed by similar decisions from European nations, providing a boost to Syria's international financial access and economic prospects. In a signal of reform, Husariya announced that Syria will soon establish a deposit insurance institution and unify the exchange rate of the Syrian pound within months. He also confirmed that real estate loans will soon be available to Syrians living abroad. 'Syria has embarked on a new phase of monetary and banking openness, parallel to the beginning of the end of the decades-long isolation of the banking sector,' he said. In June, Syria executed its first direct international bank transfer in 13 years, from a local bank to an Italian institution, using the SWIFT system, a milestone enabled by eased Western restrictions. President Ahmad al-Sharaa assumed leadership of a transitional administration in January 2025, following Assad's departure to Russia in December and the collapse of the Baath Party's rule, which had lasted since 1963. — Agencies
