00:00So I just want to talk a little bit more about that.
00:02So Trump says the U.S. lifting sanctions will give Syria a good, strong chance
00:08after years of deadly violence and under the grip of Bashar al-Assad.
00:13How significant is this for Syria when it comes to attracting overseas investment
00:19and also rebuilding its economy?
00:23We must remember that the lifting of sanctions was the number one priority
00:28for the new Syrian administration where it took power nearly six months ago, as he said.
00:33Therefore, it is an important milestone in starting to attract foreign investment,
00:39which is very much needed for the country to start recovery and reconstruction.
00:46And the countries of the Gulf themselves have said this is an important step
00:51because it allows us the freedom to invest and to help in the recovery of the country.
00:59So, yes, it is a monumental moment in Syria's history.
