Shar' Announces Start of Syria's Reconstruction Phase - Jordan News
Syrian President Ahmad Al-Shar' announced on Tuesday that the reconstruction of his war-torn country has 'just begun,' calling on citizens to unite.
اضافة اعلان Shar's remarks came during an event titled 'Aleppo: The Key to Victory.' Aleppo, the country's economic capital, was the first major city to fall into the hands of opposition factions that overthrew President Bashar al-Assad's regime last December. Before Shar' delivered his speech, large screens at the event displayed images of fighters who died in the Battle of Aleppo. In his address, Shar' stated: "O great Syrian people, the battle of rebuilding has just begun. Let us stand together and seek God's help to create a bright future for an ancient nation and a people who deserve it." The new Syrian government inherits a country devastated by a 14-year civil war that claimed over 500,000 lives. Western sanctions on Syria were recently lifted, a key step toward enabling any meaningful reconstruction efforts. Shar' added: "Let us seize this opportunity and fulfill our duty with integrity." He continued:
"Let our motto be, as it has always been: we shall neither rest nor be rested until we rebuild Syria and make it a source of pride before the entire world."
