Syrian President Ahmed Al-Sharaa affirmed the pivotal role that Syria plays in achieving regional stability, explaining that the country’s prosperity and progress are closely linked to economic growth, and that the current stage represents a golden opportunity to launch reconstruction projects and attract capital.
During his participation in a dialogue session on the sidelines of the Future Investment Initiative (FII) forum held in Riyadh, Al-Sharaa pointed to the prestigious position that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has come to occupy as a major destination for investors in the region, stressing that regional cooperation in the field of development is the best path to achieving comprehensive stability in the Middle East region.
The Syrian President stated: “The world has experienced the failure of Syria and the strategic risks it caused, but today we have started a new page and opened up to the world.”
Al-Sharaa revealed the volume of investments that flowed into Syria during the past six months, which exceeded $28 billion, explaining that “every disaster the country has suffered in 14 years has today turned into a new investment opportunity.”
He also pointed out that the Syrian government has taken investment as a strategic option for reconstruction, considering that “the real estate sector represents a major opportunity for economic recovery, in parallel with the industry, agriculture and energy sectors.”
Al-Sharaa announced that Damascus has amended investment laws to become “among the best in the world,” stressing that the new legislation grants investors broad guarantees and a flexible work environment, but he acknowledged at the same time that there are “challenges in practical application that require greater institutional cooperation.”
The Syrian President concluded his speech by emphasizing that investment partnerships will lead reconstruction efforts, calling on Arab investors to contribute effectively to “making the future of the new Syria.”
