00:00:08overcome Syrian network in the context of this documentation.
00:00:11This is ultimately a national
00:00:13time, this requires Syrian property that we need and we are investing in it
00:00:16to do justice to the victims and prosecute the criminals. I apologize to
00:00:19Professor Muhammad Khalifa, he has returned to us.
00:00:22recovery path that Syria Briefly, because time is pressing, we need to talk
00:00:25about how to pursue
00:00:28fugitives and those who
00:00:32are facing charges of war crimes and crimes against humanity in
00:00:35other countries. How can they be prosecuted today?
00:00:37As
00:00:40reinforces this my colleague, Professor
00:00:41Therefore, I believe that Syrians Radif, said, regarding the criminals
00:00:44of Bashar al-Assad's regime, Bashar al-Assad
00:00:48continuous logistical and they fled to a country that does not respect
00:00:51international law and does not respect humanity.
00:00:55It is known that even
00:00:57the Russian President is wanted by the International
00:01:00Criminal Court on charges of committing war crimes.
00:01:04However, what is required now from the Syrian courts, especially the
00:01:07and these are our legislations, Fourth Criminal Court, is to issue sentences, even
00:01:10in absentia, and circulate them through Interpol
00:01:13so that they are
00:01:15Countries ultimately circulated to all countries of the world.
00:01:17deal with other countries So,
00:01:19based on interests. expertise to develop its regarding the extradition
00:01:21emergencies and reduce of these criminals, if they leave
00:01:25Russia, they can be
00:01:29arrested by Interpol through the European Union
00:01:33this support despite and handed over
00:01:36Tamam. Syria is participating in to the Syrian government. However, as I mentioned
00:01:38earlier, Interpol
00:01:41today in this requires a fair trial, as is currently taking place
00:01:44before the Fourth Criminal Court
00:01:47in Damascus, where trial proceedings
00:01:49are conducted publicly
00:01:51meetings, especially with and transparently, and the accused has the right to...
00:01:54Sorry, due to lack of time, I would like to thank
00:01:59and recovery requires this type of Professor Muhammad Khalifa for international law. Also, thanks to
00:02:02my guest here in the studio, Professor Radif Mustafa, member of the National

00:02:28management. The participation
00:02:30in the ninth edition of the European Civil Protection Forum
00:02:33in Brussels carried a vision
00:02:36to enhance cooperation, exchange expertise, and develop
00:02:39emergency response capabilities. In parallel, Damascus opens a dialogue with
00:02:43European institutions on economic cooperation and support for

00:03:05its ability to respond and recover.

00:03:27From the Belgian capital, Brussels, I attended the ninth edition of
00:03:31the European Civil Protection Forum, which was held under
00:03:34the slogan "Ready Today, Prepared for Tomorrow."
00:03:37The delegation of the Ministry of Emergency and Disaster Management
00:03:41was headed by Assistant Minister Ahmed Aqziz in a participation
00:03:44that aims to enhance cooperation in the fields of civil protection
00:03:47and disaster management, exchange expertise,
00:03:50and learn about European experiences in developing
00:03:53emergency response capabilities and reducing disaster risks.
00:03:58possible state, Nadia? This question The forum is the most prominent platform for the European Civil Protection
00:04:00community, bringing together policymakers, civil protection authorities,
00:04:04first response teams, and workers in this field,
00:04:08should negotiate on behalf of the people. The people along with relevant parties from
00:04:11this relationship with various parts of Europe and beyond. Participation
00:04:13the Americans? in Brussels comes within a broader path of presence in
00:04:16specialized international forums, where a delegation from
00:04:18the Ministry of Emergency and Disaster Management participated
00:04:23of utmost in the twelfth meeting of the And Khanitrah are an integral Arab Partnership for Disaster Risk Reduction, which was hosted
00:04:27by the Tunisian capital. Organized by the United
00:04:30Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction,
00:04:33with the participation of representatives from Arab countries,
00:04:37regional and international organizations, and relevant partners. The Ministry of
00:04:40Emergency and Disaster Management also participated in a regional
00:04:44workshop that discussed explosive weapons in populated
00:04:47areas, and the Convention on the Prohibition or
00:04:50Restriction of the Use of Certain Conventional Weapons,
00:04:53in addition to autonomous weapons systems.
00:04:56In parallel with this presence in emergency and disaster management,
00:05:00Damascus opened a dialogue with European institutions in search
00:05:04of broader cooperation prospects. In this context,
00:05:07the Director of the European Affairs Department at the Ministry of
00:05:11Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Sally Shubat, and the Director of
00:05:15the Diplomatic Institute, Yasser Al-Jundi, participated in a
00:05:18dialogue session with a delegation from the European Council on Foreign
00:05:21Relations to discuss ways to develop political dialogue towards
00:05:25a long-term strategic partnership.
00:05:28The discussions covered opportunities for economic cooperation and addressing
00:05:32obstacles facing investment, the repercussions of excessive
00:05:35compliance with sanctions, in addition to activating
00:05:39Syria's role in regional connectivity for trade and energy, and supporting
00:05:43recovery efforts and enhancing institutional capabilities. The discussions
00:05:46also included files of transitional justice, missing persons,
00:05:49and creating the necessary conditions for the voluntary, safe,
00:05:53and dignified return of refugees, as well as coordinating positions
00:05:56on regional developments and the repercussions of Israeli
00:05:59aggressions, and expanding direct communication channels between
00:06:03national institutions and European research centers. This meeting comes after
00:06:06discussions held by the Director of the European Affairs Department
00:06:10with the Chargé d'Affaires ad interim of the Republic of Cyprus, Sefak
00:06:13Afedian, who discussed ways to enhance bilateral relations between
00:06:17Syria and Cyprus, develop prospects for joint cooperation,
00:06:21and exchange views on issues of common interest in a
00:06:23world tested by disasters and crises. Syria is moving
00:06:26to enhance its readiness, benefiting from international
00:06:31capabilities to respond to
00:06:34disaster risks. To talk more,
00:06:37we are joined from Washington
00:06:41by journalist Tamam
00:06:45Al-Jassem. Welcome, Mr.
00:06:48the European Civil Protection Forum. What is the importance
00:06:51of this participation
00:06:54forum? My greetings to you, Nadia,
00:06:58and to the viewers of Syrian News. The importance of such
00:07:03the European side, perhaps lies in the fact that
00:07:06Syria is in a state of recovery,
00:07:11partnership and not to be
00:07:14one-sided. For example, today Syria
00:07:17has built good relations with the United States of
00:07:21America, but we saw what
00:07:24happened in the House of Representatives yesterday with
00:07:28the elections, which may course or
00:07:31set conditions, etc., of these matters that may
00:07:37it is important to build a recovery
00:07:40path that provides sufficient guarantees
00:07:44without deep and fundamental setbacks
00:07:46affecting it. From here, I believe that such
00:07:50a relationship that Syria is opening with the European
00:07:53Union, which has historical and geographical
00:07:57relations with Syria, importance
00:08:01and will benefit the recovery path that Syria
00:08:05has adopted. Therefore, I think it is
00:08:08a good step. Europe wants Syria's stability.
00:08:12Europe has old partnerships with Syria.
00:08:16Therefore, this path, the path of relationship with
00:08:19Europe, may be in
00:08:22the interest of both parties and will greatly
00:08:26help Syrian economic growth, thanks to
00:08:29European expertise,
00:08:31which is well-known, of course. Indeed, Europe
00:08:35has many indicators that show its interest in
00:08:38Syria's stability, especially since there are issues that concern
00:08:42it, such as the return of Syrian refugees
00:08:45to their country voluntarily and safely. But what
00:08:49steps can be taken? How can Syria benefit more
00:08:52from these international meetings and forums?
00:08:56What should Syria offer to ensure that
00:09:00the process of exchange
00:09:03of interests and expertise is
00:09:06in the best
00:09:10was probably raised when relations with the United States of
00:09:14America began to take clear shape here.
00:09:17And this question was asked: What is required of Syria
00:09:21to offer for
00:09:25Today, the same question is raised
00:09:28regarding the relationship with Europe and charting
00:09:31the path of recovery. I believe that it is
00:09:36importance that Syria has clear
00:09:39development plans.
00:09:43Because, as you know, these people, whether
00:09:46Europeans, Americans, or even in the
00:09:50East, China, need clear
00:09:53paths with specific
00:09:57legal matters and specific
00:10:00regulatory matters presented to them so that
00:10:03these partnerships have no obstacles. They
00:10:07understand, of course, that Syria is emerging from
00:10:10a long war crisis, and so
00:10:13on. The regime
00:10:16contributed to the destruction of the country, and therefore, even the
00:10:19infrastructure and perhaps the legal
00:10:23and many other issues need to be rebuilt.
00:10:26Therefore, they realize
00:10:28that and are trying to
00:10:33this shortcoming. But at the same
00:10:38the Syrian side to provide a clear,
00:10:42comprehensive vision for the
00:10:47wants, and so that the other party
00:10:50does not exploit what it wants from Syria,
00:10:54what it wants from this relationship. Meaning that
00:10:57you present your idea better than someone else
00:11:01coming and presenting an idea that might be in their interest.
00:11:06need to build a vision
00:11:09for the Syrian situation, a comprehensive economic vision that includes all
00:11:12sectors, includes all matters that
00:11:16we need in this country for development and recovery,
00:11:19so that it is clear to the world, not just to Europeans, but to the world
00:11:23at large, that this is our comprehensive
00:11:26developmental and planned project,
00:11:29and these are our laws,
00:11:32and this is our work on the ground that benefits Syrians
00:11:36and consequently benefits this relationship.
00:11:44What benefits me and benefits you
00:11:47is the basis on which state relations are built,
00:11:51not on emotional matters, we can say.
00:11:55So, what is delaying
00:11:58the continuous statements about the importance
00:12:02and necessity of support, and that there is
00:12:05support for government measures in Syria, but
00:12:09we don't see tangible support on the ground? What is delaying
00:12:11it? We cannot say that
00:12:15we don't see tangible support. We can say that it
00:12:18needs time for the other party to understand
00:12:22the nature of the situation in Syria and deal with it.
00:12:25Lack of electricity, lack of infrastructure, lack of roads, all
00:12:29of these hinder projects if European companies, if
00:12:32American companies or even international
00:12:35legal institutions, etc.,
00:12:39want to come to Syria, they set these
00:12:43rules and foundations for their arrival, safety,
00:12:46etc. All these matters are put before them so that
00:12:49they can say, "Well, Syria today is ready for
00:12:53companies to come, for international institutions to establish themselves
00:12:57in Syria and start cooperation with it." So, all these
00:13:00matters may take time.
00:13:03We have seen, for example, an improvement in the electricity sector. Electricity
00:13:06has become an essential commodity in
00:13:10all countries of the world for any development. I am talking, yes, I am talking about
00:13:13European support. You, of course,
00:13:17there are many changes that Syria is witnessing,
00:13:21but in terms of real support that contributes to
00:13:24the economic recovery of the country. Allow me to welcome
00:13:28my guest, Dr. Yasser Al-Hussein, academic and economic
00:13:31researcher, joining us from Aleppo. Welcome, Dr.
00:13:34Yasser. So, on the same point, how can these
00:13:38Syrian participations
00:13:41forums, especially with
00:13:44European institutions, how can they be transformed
00:13:47into real support that contributes to Syria's economic
00:13:51recovery? Good evening,
00:13:55Nadia, and all viewers. Of course,
00:13:58we are now talking about Syria in
00:14:01a state of recovery
00:14:04and moving towards the economy and investment
00:14:07in Syria. So, any meeting in any
00:14:11community or any
00:14:13economic activity
00:14:16or anything that falls into this direction
00:14:19can be said to be an enhancement
00:14:23of this trend that the Syrian
00:14:27state is pursuing in relation
00:14:30to the fact that we are
00:14:33engaging with the global economy
00:14:36significantly because we genuinely
00:14:40need, we in Syria need to
00:14:43be integrated into the external
00:14:46economic reality. So, whether it is the European
00:14:49Union or others, as for the specificity of the European Union,
00:14:53working with it is very good. Why? Because
00:14:57the European Union is truly known to everyone
00:15:00to have very good experience in the economic
00:15:03field, in economic partnership fields, and in providing
00:15:07expertise that they have acquired during
00:15:11an advanced period compared to developing countries, and we
00:15:15are from developing countries. So, any
00:15:17cooperation with these countries, especially
00:15:21the European Union, is truly an enhancement
00:15:24of the recovery in Syria. The areas
00:15:27that can be started in, or
00:15:31that we have started in, or that can be
00:15:34jointly pursued, are truly vital and important for the launch
00:15:38of the economic development wheel, the reconstruction wheel, and the recovery
00:15:41wheel. We are now in need of these agreements. Therefore,
00:15:45I see it as essential that there is always
00:15:48openness from the Syrian state and a search
00:15:51for any investment opportunity that can
00:15:55clarify the reality of the Syrian
00:15:58situation, which now
00:16:02wants to take off, and the goals
00:16:05that the state seeks
00:16:08in the recovery phase. So, any meeting with any
00:16:11international party, especially the European Union
00:16:15and developed countries,
00:16:17trend of the Syrian state. Yes, yes,
00:16:21thank you very much,
00:16:23Professor
00:16:25Tamam Al-Jassem, you were with us from Washington, the journalist,

00:17:48this is a good beginning for future strategic
00:17:51projects, God willing.
00:17:57There are very strong historical ties between the two countries, and there are also
00:18:00economic ties.
00:18:09We are very happy with this warm
00:18:12welcome, and we see that your
00:18:16hearts have met us before your eyes. Geography says
00:18:20the neighbor is the closest home, but wisdom
00:18:23says the closest blood, and we hope that the blood of Iraq
00:18:27and Syria is one blood, and perhaps our blood has increased,
00:18:30because we are one with you, God willing, one people
00:18:34living in two countries, and we want to revive
00:18:38our history, we want to restore economic
00:18:41cooperation, political cooperation, unite
00:18:46at the Arab or Islamic world
00:18:49level. Your security is our security,
00:18:52and vice versa. And God willing,
00:18:55we will soon await your arrival to honor
00:18:58us in your second country, and you will
00:19:02be the hosts and we will be the guests.
00:19:03May God protect you.
00:19:10It is very important to capitalize on your presence
00:19:13today in your second country, Damascus,
00:19:17to start a roadmap that we hope will be long and sustainable.
00:19:46The people have changed their nationality, their mentality
00:19:49has been liberated. They do not accept any brutal Israeli
00:19:52incursion.
00:19:59part of Syria. We will not allow
00:20:02any harm
00:20:06to it.
00:20:09Syria is free and will remain
00:20:10free.
00:20:15Syria is one and united, and the Syrian people

00:29:54Welcome, dear viewers, to this news hour, which we begin
00:29:58with a summary of the most important news. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs
00:30:01and Expatriates confirmed that the visit of President Ahmed Al-Shara to the Kingdom
00:30:04of Saudi Arabia constituted an important
00:30:08station for strengthening bilateral relations and developing
00:30:11joint cooperation. The Ministry stated in a statement that the visit, which
00:30:14took place on the fourth of November, witnessed discussions
00:30:17on regional and international issues and ways to
00:30:21de-escalate. It also culminated in the signing of a military
00:30:24cooperation agreement and memorandums of understanding
00:30:28covering industrial, agricultural, environmental,
00:30:31infrastructure, and financial services
00:30:34sectors.
00:30:40The Higher Education and Scientific Research Committee in the People's Assembly discussed
00:30:44a number of files, most notably the file of faculty members
00:30:47who were absent for revolutionary reasons, the file of delegates,
00:30:51and the university regulation law during a meeting
00:30:55chaired by Ahmed Al-Afadl. The committee reviewed
00:30:58previously issued legislation and laws.
