00:06:43The Minister of Transport informed me a few days ago that they have almost overseen
00:06:46the end of receiving bids from
00:06:50companies, and it will be up to international standards, God willing, in a way that befits
00:06:54the city of Deir Ezzor, God willing. Also, the road connecting

00:07:06Al-Bukamal and Deir Ezzor, also
00:07:10work will be done on it, and also the bridges that were destroyed, also the Al-Siyasieh
00:07:13and Al-Mayadeen bridges at their head, we are also working on rehabilitating
00:07:17them and rebuilding them from scratch, and God willing,
00:07:21the matter will be completed as soon as possible. Also, there is a project
00:07:25for a large industrial city, which will also have food industries

00:07:31employment opportunities and also to export products directly

00:07:49some time until these projects are completed, and this
00:07:53we do not consider much for our people in Deir Ezzor and our people in the east
00:07:56also. And these are only the beginnings, God willing,
00:07:59and the first thing we start with is connecting roads so that people can
00:08:03go to and return from Deir Ezzor safely
00:08:06and comfortably.
00:08:11Today we witnessed the landing of the first domestic flight of Syrian Airlines coming from
00:08:14Damascus Airport to Deir Ezzor Airport. This event represents
00:08:17the return of this vital facility to service after the completion of rehabilitation
00:08:20works by the General Authority for Civil Aviation and Air Transport.
00:08:24We congratulate our people in Deir Ezzor and look forward, God
00:08:27willing, to receiving more domestic and international flights during the upcoming
00:08:31period. By God, the flight
00:08:35was excellent, and
00:08:38the reception was very good,
00:08:41and the flight attendants did not fail, and the staff
00:08:45there did not fail, by God. It's really
00:08:48something else, by God. I mean,
00:08:52there's nothing like it. I mean,
00:08:55we're comfortable. What's its condition? Oh, by God, it's very
00:08:59good.
00:09:01A different feeling that this is the first time in 11 years I reach Deir Ezzor. This is the first
00:09:05thing. The second thing, honestly,
00:09:09and excellent facilities at the airport.
00:09:12The reception and services, and our departure from Damascus
00:09:15Airport were also very smooth and there were no delays at all.
00:09:18In 45 minutes, we were there. Thank God, things are very smooth.
00:09:22I mean, opening
00:09:26people of the hassle of travel,
00:09:29that used to happen on the roads, so thank God, now that there are flights,
00:09:33there will be no more accidents, there will be nothing, and Masha Allah, the service is wonderful.
00:09:37I mean, Damascus Airport or Deir Ezzor Airport, and the reception
00:09:41is heartwarming. May Allah honor and reward everyone who worked
00:09:44and contributed to this.
00:10:00we start the discussion with what Mr. President said
00:10:04during the video call during the opening
00:10:07ceremony of Deir Ezzor Airport yesterday when he said that Deir Ezzor
00:10:11Airport has transformed from a place from which planes take off to drop
00:10:14bombs to a place that connects Deir
00:10:17Ezzor to the world. To what extent does that or what does that mean
00:10:21for the people of Deir Ezzor? I mean, this matter, first of all,
00:10:25we congratulate our people in Deir Ezzor Governorate for this great joy,
00:10:29and this ancient governorate that has offered
00:10:32what it has offered in the Syrian revolution
00:10:35of heroic men as sacrifices for this revolution and sacrifices
00:10:39for this moment when Deir Ezzor Governorate was able to connect
00:10:43itself and deliver its message to the Syrian interior and to the world.
00:10:45And the words of President Ahmed Al-Shara yesterday
00:10:49and the friendly message that
00:10:52and from the conscience, I mean, in the memory of this man
00:10:56for the people of Deir Ezzor who shared with him the path
00:11:00of struggle since the beginning of this glorious revolution until
00:11:03the moment of the fall of the former regime, yes. Now, Deir
00:11:07Ezzor Governorate is opening a civilian airport
00:11:10that spreads happiness and connects loved ones
00:11:14to each other and connects the people of Deir
00:11:17Ezzor from all over the world to their families
00:11:20safely, God willing, after this airport
00:11:24used to spread death and destruction during the era of the former
00:11:27regime and spread barrels of death and hatred,
00:11:31and we knew that this airport was responsible for the destruction of this
00:11:35ancient governorate, which reached a percentage
00:11:38of destruction that exceeds 80%.
00:11:41We knew that this governorate was composed of
00:11:4522 neighborhoods, meaning more than 20 neighborhoods were destroyed
00:11:50airport, I mean,
00:11:53fallen regime. Now the situation is completely
00:11:56different. Now President Ahmed Al-Shara tells the people of Deir
00:12:00Ezzor that it is time for this governorate to rise
00:12:04as its men and women have risen,
00:12:07who have resisted all forms of oppression and crime.
00:12:11Now, I mean, it is necessary for Deir Ezzor
00:12:14Governorate to return to development, to economy, to peace of mind,
00:12:18to cultural and social
00:12:21communication for the people of this governorate. Yes.
00:12:25Deir Ezzor is a message, a gateway to upcoming
00:12:28development projects for the governorate, mentioned by President Ahmed
00:12:31Al-Shara, starting with the rehabilitation of Deir
00:12:35Ezzor Airport, and the completion of 90% of the first
00:12:38phase. There is also
00:12:41airport. Also, regarding the Deir Ezzor-Damascus road,
00:12:45and this bad road, I mean, this road that
00:12:48is almost called the road of death,
00:12:51there is also a plan during the coming period that this
00:12:55governorate will have an international road connecting
00:12:58Al-Jazira to Damascus. Also, regarding the Al-Bukamal-Raqqa
00:13:02road, and here, I mean, we will have connected
00:13:05this governorate to all Syrian governorates, I mean,
00:13:08with a network of modern and developed roads connecting
00:13:12the Syrian-Iraqi border to the rest of the governorates, reaching
00:13:15the Syrian-Turkish
00:13:18border. Also, regarding the hospital
00:13:21that President Ahmed Al-Shara promised,
00:13:25with an estimated cost of 21 million dollars, for
00:13:27cancer diseases. We knew that
00:13:31the scourges of war, the scourges of oil,
00:13:35and the scourges of destruction that affected Al-Jazira
00:13:38led to the presence of epidemics in this governorate
00:13:42and environmental pollution that led to the infection of a large
00:13:46with this type of diseases.
00:13:49These governorates need
00:13:53hospital in this field, and President also promised
00:13:57that during the coming period, there is a plan to start
00:14:00a developed hospital for cancer diseases. Also, regarding
00:14:04the new industrial city, we knew that these governorates
00:14:09resources in the field of animal wealth and in the field of agriculture,
00:14:13and these governorates were classified
00:14:17during the era of the fallen regime as remote areas. The resources
00:14:21of these governorates were plundered and stolen and exported
00:14:25abroad, and their people were described as people
00:14:29who are remote and do not deserve to live or deserve life. Now
00:14:32President Ahmed Al-Shara says that this era
00:14:36is over, and now Deir Ezzor Governorate is preparing
00:14:39for the launch of a developed industrial city, and he
00:14:43jokingly told the people of Deir Ezzor that there will be
00:14:46local products manufactured in Deir Ezzor Governorate,
00:14:50and this is the least that Deir Ezzor Governorate deserves. And we
00:14:53used to say "made in
00:15:03" This promotes national products and conducts media campaigns and promotional
00:15:07campaigns, and this has great implications and symbolism
00:15:37to talk, from an economic perspective,
00:15:41is there an economic relationship
00:15:44between the rehabilitation of Deir Ezzor Airport and the development projects
00:15:48that President Ahmed Al-Shara spoke about yesterday during the opening
00:15:51ceremony?
00:15:54We cannot say that there is no relationship, but there is every relationship,
00:15:58actually. Deir Ezzor is a city that has
00:16:02a special character before we talk about the economic character,
00:16:05which is the character of oil,
00:16:08the character of mineral resources in Deir Ezzor.
00:16:11Deir Ezzor, in the beginning, I actually want
00:16:15اود
00:16:17to express my pride and gratitude to the people of Deir Ezzor, the people of Deir Ezzor who
00:16:21were one of the most important incubators of the Syrian revolution, and one
00:16:25of the most important incubators that actually
00:16:27contributed to the continuation of the Syrian revolution
00:16:31to what it has reached and its arrival to what it has reached.
00:16:34So my acquaintance with many of the people of Deir Ezzor, even the expatriates
00:16:38of Deir Ezzor and its businessmen, and I know from them, honestly,
00:16:40those who continued
00:16:43to give throughout the entire period of the revolution
00:16:46and after the revolution
00:16:51humanitarian issues that Deir Ezzor, like
00:16:54all Syrian governorates, needed.
00:16:57Therefore, the people of Deir, our people
00:17:01who are known for generosity, chivalry,
00:17:05and nobility, truly deserve
00:17:08more than just an airport because the airport
00:17:11is not, we cannot say that it is, I mean, it is not an airport
00:17:14in itself. It is a duty
00:17:17of the state. The completion of the airport
00:17:21is actually a great effort, and from here
00:17:24we extend our thanks to Mr. Omar
00:17:27Al-Hasri, the head of the Syrian Aviation Authority, for the performance he delivered,
00:17:30which is truly well-known for
00:17:34this performance and integrity that we all
00:17:38know him for. Deir Ezzor,
00:17:41let's go back to the economic aspect. the world,
00:17:45and we see them in Saudi Arabia and the Emirates,
00:17:49and we see them in the eastern regions, for example, in Saudi Arabia,
00:17:53the western regions
00:17:55in the Emirates, are always regions that have a special character
00:17:59in terms of facilitating access to them. Today
00:18:02you always have oil investments coming in, so these foreign
00:18:06companies that always seek to send delegations
00:18:09and engineers and continuous movement
00:18:13with oil-producing regions need easier access to them.
00:18:17Therefore, it is one of the most important factors
00:18:20that were focused on, and the completion of Deir
00:18:23Ezzor Airport. We saw the tragic accident that our people suffered
00:18:26on the Deir Ezzor-Damascus road. Therefore, the existence of air
00:18:32the burden on the road that is actually
00:18:35called the road of death, and we definitely know that
00:18:39there is an ambitious plan in Syria to modernize
00:18:42roads, but also focusing on air
00:18:47eases and relieves people of the burden of reaching
00:18:51Damascus, and thus facilitates their communication with
00:18:54the world. Today, actually,
00:18:58the existence of the airport helps attract
00:19:01investments to the region, creates new job opportunities,
00:19:04encourages partnerships, and always encourages, I mean,
00:19:07today, even as an investor, as an economic
00:19:10person, when I think about going to Deir Ezzor,
00:19:14and that the car will take me five or six or seven hours,
00:19:17then I may think
00:19:19a lot before moving to the work site and the work study
00:19:23site. Therefore, I believe that what the state has done,
00:19:26and this is what I always talk about, is that we must always
00:19:33in economic projects. From this perspective, I believe that
00:19:38in focusing on completing Deir Ezzor Airport
00:19:41at this stage, which will have repercussions in all respects,
00:19:45truly economic, social, even
00:19:48psychologically. I mean, the people of Deir Ezzor
00:19:51appreciation. We do not deny that it is a right and not a favor,
00:19:55as we mentioned, because this is the duty of the state,
00:19:58our duty as Syrians to achieve such a project
00:20:01and what follows it in terms of projects. For me,
00:20:05actually, Deir Ezzor Airport is a new gateway to life, a new gateway
00:20:09to development, a new
00:20:10gateway
00:20:14to connect the eastern regions because Deir Ezzor does not only serve
00:20:17the city of Deir Ezzor, actually, it serves all
00:20:21the eastern regions.
00:20:33Mahmoud said, it has several effects, including economic, social,
00:20:37and also psychological effects. Professor Amin, how do the people
00:20:41of Deir Ezzor view Deir Ezzor Airport and its reopening
00:20:50Of course, the view of the people of Deir Ezzor is a view
00:20:56airport was previously
00:20:59a military base adopted by
00:21:02the regime, and today it is turning into an important
00:21:04economic window.
00:21:08I can talk about several
00:21:10points.
00:21:13airport, it will be a vital window
00:21:17for businessmen and investors,
00:21:20stimulating commercial movement through
00:21:24facilitating the movement of capital,
00:21:27cadres, and goods flowing
00:21:30from the governorates or even from
00:21:34neighboring countries, supporting the local
00:21:38economy, driving the engine of local markets
00:21:41towards rapid recovery from
00:21:44and providing great job opportunities.
00:21:47There will be new job opportunities
00:21:51for the people of the region.
00:22:00the opening ceremony of Deir Ezzor
00:22:02Airport, and it was inside the airport.
00:22:06What is the message that, in your opinion, was intended to be conveyed
00:22:09by this ceremony? This is the message of the people of Deir Ezzor
00:22:13Governorate, and this is the culture of the people of Deir Ezzor Governorate.
00:22:16I mean, the ceremony yesterday was a cultural link
00:22:20of who the people of Deir Ezzor Governorate are. We knew that the fallen regime
00:22:24used to distort the image of the people of Al-Jazira
00:22:28day these governorates would revolt against the fallen regime,
00:22:32and indeed these governorates revolted
00:22:35regime.
00:22:38the brilliant organizational ceremony that
00:22:42spread the culture of the people of Deir Ezzor Governorate spread,
00:22:45I mean, the poem and spread the Euphrates
00:22:48song, spread the Euphrates cultural folklore,
00:22:52spread the Euphrates dress, spread the industrial
00:22:55products of the people of Al-Jazira and the Euphrates.
00:22:58I mean, we were proud. We were the children of farmers. We were the children of this
00:23:01good environment that,
00:23:05I mean, produced steadfast men. We are now sending
00:23:09to the world that these are our governorates, and this is our culture, and this
00:23:12is, I mean, our dress, and this is our folklore. So it was
00:23:15a cultural link mixed with a link
00:23:18of hope, a primitive developmental one. I consider
00:23:22it a primitive step for a great development wheel
00:23:26through the promising projects that President Ahmed Al-Shara launched.
00:23:29And going back to the industrial city,
00:23:32we knew that petrochemical products,
00:23:36I mean, petrochemical factories, I mean,
00:23:39even if they follow the example of Saudi Arabia, I mean, these products
00:23:43that come out of oil derivatives, I mean,
00:23:46their price equals, their price equals
00:23:50oil itself. I mean, we knew that oil derivatives are more than
00:23:5320 to 30 products, including plastic granules,
00:23:57including chemical materials that are used in detergents, including
00:24:00chemical materials that are used in all aspects
00:24:03of the social life of the Syrian citizen. So if there are
00:24:07factories related to petrochemical industries, they will
00:24:10provide great employment opportunities for the people of Deir Ezzor,
00:24:14also in terms of the food industry. We knew, I mean,
00:24:18there is a possibility
00:24:22in the region and transform them into industrial products within the governorate
00:24:27of opportunities and market these products in the name of Deir
00:24:31Ezzor Governorate to the world. Also, in terms of, I mean,
00:24:34the connecting points, I mean, we knew the roads
00:24:38and infrastructure and the ambitious plan of the Syrian government
00:24:42to connect, I mean, all Syrian territories
00:24:45to each other with, I mean, modern
00:24:48and developed roads that are in line with the aspirations of the Syrian
00:24:52people. This will facilitate communication. I mean, we
00:24:56knew that Deir Ezzor Governorate is one of the border governorates
00:24:59with brotherly Iraq, and also with regard to the Kurdistan
00:25:04I mean, its connection with Hasakah and Raqqa and its connection
00:25:08with the Turkish border. So it is a connecting point,
00:25:11and also, I mean, I call on the Syrian government
00:25:14to attract, I mean, promising government investments
00:25:18such as dry ports, and for Deir Ezzor Governorate to be
00:25:22a gathering point and a transit point, I mean, international
00:25:25economic. All these development projects that, I mean,
00:25:29Deir Ezzor Governorate aspires to will contribute
00:25:31to the movement of the economic wheel
00:25:35of the Syrian economy, and also contribute
00:25:38to, I mean, repaying a small part to these governorates
00:25:41for what they have offered. I mean, we knew that these governorates
00:25:45sacrificed what they sacrificed, and the people of these governorates
00:25:48and the fathers of the martyrs and the children of
00:25:52the martyrs who fell for this country should now enjoy
00:25:55the blessings of their homeland and the minimum decent
00:25:59living standard for these noble families and the advanced
00:26:02service level
00:26:06for these
00:26:13in your opinion, can these projects announced by the President, the industrial city
00:26:16that, I mean, primarily focuses on petrochemical
00:26:20industries and also food industries,
00:26:23and the new hospital, the opening of the airport as we saw yesterday,
00:26:27and also the development of the road connecting Damascus and Deir Ezzor,
00:26:31these projects, to what extent can they truly revive
00:26:34the economic situation in the governorate, which is perhaps
00:26:38more than 80%
00:26:41of its homes, especially in the city of Deir Ezzor?
00:26:45I mean, first, we must mention that despite the specificity of Deir Ezzor
00:26:48and the extensive destruction, it represents a true part of what
00:26:52happened in Syria and what Syria needs in terms of
00:26:55investments and reconstruction. Therefore, these projects
00:26:58themselves are strategic projects. These projects
00:27:02are, I mean, from the beginning of their work
00:27:06from the beginning of the plans until they become a tangible reality,
00:27:10they are already part of a complete construction process,
00:27:13because, in reality, through construction,
00:27:16people will be employed, a large number of people
00:27:20and companies will be employed.
00:27:21Therefore, it begins
00:27:24a real economic cycle that is directly
00:27:27reflected, in one way or another, on people until
00:27:30the projects are completed.
00:27:32Therefore, the real impact
00:27:36with its agricultural
00:27:39and oil specificities. It is a gold
00:27:42mine for Syria, and it is, I mean, an essential
00:27:45and main part of Syria's wealth. Therefore,
00:27:49focusing on it is a strategic issue from an economic
00:27:52perspective. We are not talking about, well, it is just that
00:27:56we need to provide a service to this region.
00:27:59No, in fact, what can be provided
00:28:02in Deir Ezzor is part of a complete
00:28:06construction system. Therefore, today, The road or the airport
00:28:10itself is not an objective in itself, but the airport
00:28:13aims to provide services for what comes after it, whether
00:28:17it is on the social and humanitarian and transportation level or on the level
00:28:20of facilitating movement and bringing
00:28:24movement closer to companies and investment companies
00:28:27and economic projects. Every project announced today
00:28:30in Deir Ezzor or announced in any governorate, and I always say
00:28:34Deir Ezzor has priority due to the extent
00:28:37of the destruction that Deir Ezzor reached and may reach
00:28:4080%. We saw some previous reports that
00:28:44were prepared by some journalists and activists.
00:28:47Deir Ezzor truly deserves such projects
00:28:51and deserves to have priority
00:28:54or to be at the top of the government's priorities and the top
00:28:57of project priorities and the top of development priorities. If
00:29:02oil or if it did not have the possibility of certain
00:29:06investments, what about the existence of these possibilities? Therefore,
00:29:09it gives an opportunity for the government to
00:29:12give it greater priority for
00:29:15the issue of development. With this observation, what the president announced is truly
00:29:19the first
00:29:21and last goal
00:29:25of these projects is to start
00:29:28development in this governorate, and I believe that we will witness
00:29:32many other places today. We may be
00:29:35on the verge of a new economic idea during the past
00:29:39periods. There is a real problem
00:29:42related to the concentration
00:29:45of investments in several cities, including Damascus and Aleppo in particular.
00:29:48Therefore, there is a
00:29:51population overcrowding in Damascus
00:29:55and Aleppo because the state always complains about the migration
00:29:59from the countryside to the city. But the truth is that the solution
00:30:01to not migrating is
00:30:04to provide sources of livelihood by establishing
00:30:08projects in one way or another, and through
00:30:11these projects, people will definitely
00:30:14stay in these areas because the source of livelihood will be
00:30:18in the rural areas. Today, we are not only talking about projects, we are talking
00:30:22about a truly comprehensive plan that must be
00:30:25in Syria, and what we are witnessing from what the president
00:30:30context because today
00:30:32the complaint about population overcrowding and leaving
00:30:36the rural areas is truly a catastrophic issue for
00:30:40the rebuilding of Syria and, in my conviction,
00:30:43it must be rebuilt on correct foundations. The more
00:30:47we develop investments in cities
00:30:50and rural areas, I believe we will alleviate a real
00:30:54large cities. I hope that our vision will be
00:30:58clear at the level
