Syria exported oil abroad for the first time in 14 years. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This was reported by the international agency Reuters. It is stated that based on an agreement with a trading company, a total of 600 thousand barrels of crude oil were shipped to foreign countries.
As a result of the lifting of restrictions imposed by the US in August of this year, not only was the export restored, but economic activities also intensified. The Syrian Ministry of Energy considered this step important not only for revitalizing the oil sector but also for enhancing the country's position in international energy markets and expanding cooperation opportunities with global companies.
New export shipments are planned to be carried out in the near future. Due to the crisis that began in the country in 2011 and economic sanctions imposed by the West, Syria had stopped selling oil abroad for a long time.
Therefore, this new step holds significance not only economically but also politically. Experts consider this change an important signal for the oil market and emphasize that it will strengthen Syria's position in international trade.
