00:00:07Every blanket I smell second, the lack of communication with following up, of course, all of us are following up from I feel like there's blood mixed
00:00:11with the smell of popcorn.
00:00:15When they call, I actually hear the torture. You don't know if you'll come back alive or
00:00:21of the questions that were dead.
00:00:24the tanks still containing quantities or not? I remember hearing the white hair crackle
00:00:27in my head.
00:00:32The soul that is tormented is the one that does not depart.
00:00:48period, given that Sadcop issued
00:00:52This news is not a fleeting detail, but a moment
00:00:55that deserves understanding.
00:00:58In a world, we are filled with headlines, we search for what
00:01:02and oversight over is behind them.
00:01:03were received on this Syria TV website
00:01:06transmits the event as it is and gives you
00:01:09the context to complete the vision.
00:01:12Continuous coverage, balanced analysis,
00:01:16and content that puts people at the heart of the story. This
00:01:20breaking news: Bashar
00:01:22al-Assad's escape. Syria TV website,
00:01:26because knowledge begins with a question and more comprehensive news.
00:01:41The Ministry of Energy announced
00:01:42rely on fuel for its follow-up on the recent gasoline crisis, resulting from the poor quality
00:01:46of the material and its non-conformity with quality standards, which caused
00:01:50citizens' vehicles to suffer various breakdowns.
00:01:53The ministry stated that the follow-up includes reviewing all
00:01:56stages of importing the material, inspecting it, receiving it,
00:02:00storing it, transporting it, and distributing it. It also includes
00:02:02verifying the causes of the defect and potential
00:02:07late until it realized shortcomings, in addition to determining responsibilities and taking necessary measures.
00:02:10The ministry pledged to hold accountable anyone
00:02:14proven to be involved in any manipulation, corruption,
00:02:22In every corner of this policy, I think, yet concerning this negligence, or dereliction in accordance with legal procrastination in this procedures.
00:02:27through our tours to Regarding this topic, I welcome
00:02:30Khalid Al-Khalaf, a member of the Energy Committee in the People's Assembly, directly
00:02:34said that no complaints were received on from Deir ez-Zor. Welcome.
00:02:36caused harm to many And I also welcome Abdul Razzaq Habza, Secretary of the Consumer Protection
00:02:40Association in Syria, directly from
00:02:42Damascus. Welcome. I start with you, Mr.
00:02:46Khalid, to talk about these steps taken by the Ministry
00:02:50of Energy, which speak of reviewing all
00:02:52stages of gasoline import. What does
00:02:56that indicate? Are we facing a technical defect in the system
00:03:00to interpret, I do not want to interpret from or is there a problem related to
00:03:03the regulatory process, perhaps a defect
00:03:05there?
00:03:08May God bless you, the guest, and the viewers.
00:03:11Unfortunately, today, after
00:03:14hope it is not unintentional. This more than two months, we are still in an energy crisis, especially a fuel
00:03:16crisis. We started with a shortage of this material,
00:03:21a little. Three types of then a rise, then a deterioration of this material, which
00:03:25actually led to the disruption of many of citizens'
00:03:28vehicles, motorcycles, and cars. Many people
00:03:32earn their living through them.
00:03:35The formation of a specialized committee for this matter, actually,
00:03:38we as the people of Deir
00:03:41ez-Zor in particular, are talking about many
00:03:44cars that broke down.
00:03:48I think we had a very good center
00:03:51in the governorate. The issue of forming a committee at this
00:03:55time,
00:03:58Will the 11.5 or the 15 be lost or not? I don't think it
00:04:01the situation has reached will bear fruit, like other committees that were formed at the governorate level
00:04:03things where there is no transparency in for previous crises, such as the tragic
00:04:06accident of two buses on the Damascus road and the sinking
00:04:10daily with of the ferry that happened some time ago in the Euphrates during
00:04:13the flood. We hope that this committee will actually
00:04:18been issued by the authorities responsible for be a transparent committee that informs
00:04:20citizens about
00:04:24that affect this the serious thing that happened
00:04:26in the past period. I think the losses
00:04:30exceeded millions for car owners,
00:04:33motorcycle owners. There
00:04:35is
00:04:38a real crisis that citizens
00:04:41are experiencing today. The fear of someone
00:04:44stopping at a gas station or fuel
00:04:46station to fill their motorcycle or
00:04:50car, which in many
00:04:53nothing to do with this whole cases is their source of livelihood. Umm, of course, there are many problems
00:04:57related to the officials in charge of this file. It is
00:05:02or on WhatsApp directly or on their denial knows what it imports and evaluates and puts of the responsibilities
00:05:03they bear.
00:05:06Of course, based on this, before discussing responsibility,
00:05:10the situation has reached I will come back to this point, but let me move on to
00:05:14Abdul Razzaq. Mr. Abdul Razzaq, these steps, in parallel with these
00:05:17operations that the Ministry of Energy talked about regarding
00:05:21reviewing violations or perhaps stages
00:05:25of gasoline import. First, let's talk about how
00:05:28the gasoline passed inspection and control procedures
00:05:31in the first place so that we don't reach
00:05:33this stage.
00:05:37Greetings, Professor Dima. I say to the Ministry of Energy,
00:05:41thank God for your safety. Thank God for your safety. You are very
00:05:44late. The issue has been going on for a long time. Now I want to see who
00:05:48is responsible and who is not responsible.
00:05:50The people whose vehicles broke down, who incurred costs, whose work was disrupted,
00:05:54and who were harmed, all of this, no matter what the results
00:05:58of the investigation they are talking about, no matter what the results and the determination of responsibilities they
00:06:01are talking about, and control and other control. What do I care as a citizen? I am speaking on behalf
00:06:05of the consumer and the citizen who has a vehicle and works on it, and it broke down
00:06:08and he paid. Especially with the
00:06:11rise in prices of spare parts and repair costs, who will compensate him?
00:06:14No matter what the results are and we determined the responsibilities, and I will tell you, in the end,
00:06:18we will determine responsibilities, we will exempt so-and-so or punish so-and-so. In the end,
00:06:21who bears the direct damage? The citizen. This is one thing.
00:06:25The other thing is the issue of handing over tankers, receiving tankers from
00:06:28stations. Everyone knows, the Ministry of Energy knows this, that they have
00:06:31what we call sealing, meaning sealed
00:06:35with lead. A sample is taken from the tanker
00:06:38to determine the temperature, the amount of the quantity present,
00:06:42meaning all specifications. They take a sample and examine it before it is
00:06:45poured into the tanks of the stations.
00:06:48I smell something strange about this issue. It seems the issue is bigger
00:06:52than
00:06:54what the Ministry of Energy said.
00:06:58This is one thing. The other thing is the contradiction
00:07:01in the results of the Ministry of Energy's work. At first,
00:07:05of course, it denied that this material came from its warehouses and that its warehouses are safe.
00:07:09Now it wants to investigate. What does that mean in
00:07:12these statements? The Ministry of Energy
00:07:16was very late. It was very
00:07:20this issue. It is supposed to be, and previously I used to say
00:07:23that there is a delay in government decisions, and actually there is a big
00:07:27delay. But this time there was a big damage to the citizen, and I am one
00:07:31of the people who were affected. I mean, today I filled my car with gasoline,
00:07:34and I actually felt that there was a defect in
00:07:38the quantity. Well, in your opinion, since you mentioned the delay
00:07:41in many things, I will come back to you on this point, but regarding
00:07:44the delay in making decisions and you said that they are
00:07:48repeated steps by the concerned parties and officials in making
00:07:51decisions, what are the main reasons behind the delay in
00:07:55making these decisions?
00:07:59The government's failure to keep up with the market, the government's failure to keep up
00:08:02with the reality of market movement, whether in terms of prices,
00:08:05quality, loss of material, demand for material,
00:08:09shortage of material in general. There is a lack of
00:08:12compatibility between government decisions and what
00:08:16is happening in the markets. There is a disconnect, actually, a disconnect between them and
00:08:20the market. This is a very important issue for us and for
00:08:24the citizen and for the ministry. The reputation of the ministry, I mean, it must be
00:08:27that the promises it made previously, it promised three types of diesel.
00:08:30Now, excuse me, let me step out of the topic
00:08:33diesel: 11.5, 15, and 17.5.
00:08:37And they tell me where is there 11.5? I haven't noticed this, and I haven't
00:08:41found 15. Today I am asking.
00:08:44There is only one type, the 17.5 type, or the type,
00:08:48of course, whose price increased.
00:08:51I mean, there must be credibility, credibility between the government
00:08:55and the Ministry of Energy in particular. We are not blaming the government because our topic
00:08:58is related to the Ministry of Energy. There should be credibility between it and the citizen so that
00:09:02the citizen trusts it later. We don't know what will happen, I mean, what will happen in the future.
00:09:06I no longer trust if I want to fill diesel for my home. I don't know whether to fill or not to fill.
00:09:11Will it be lost tomorrow or not? I mean, there are
00:09:16the Ministry of Energy's
00:09:19proposals with citizens. Well,
00:09:22based on, I mean, since you mentioned the issue of transparency, where
00:09:26does the defect lie today? Is it enough, really, or is it enough
00:09:30from the Ministry of Energy to take these steps that we are witnessing regarding
00:09:33its investigation into the causes of the defect, or what
00:09:37now? Are these
00:09:38steps sufficient?
00:09:42No, no, they are not sufficient. No, they are not sufficient at all. What do I want
00:09:45with the investigation? What do I benefit from?
00:09:48What is required is to have a follow-up
00:09:51on the reality of the markets, the reality of the citizen. As soon
00:09:54as I hear, I mean, madam, social media
00:09:57and social media are knowing everything quickly, I mean, there is
00:10:01speed with us. There is something called digital transformation.
00:10:04I mean, I must have sensors to know the amount of gasoline,
00:10:08to know the fuel in general, how much I have, what
00:10:12is the available reserve, what is the available strategy. There are sensors, there
00:10:16is digital transformation, I have screens that are supposed to transmit information to the ministry,
00:10:19and the ministry immediately takes action. Did the ministry not know that there was a defect
00:10:23in this issue, the gasoline issue? Surely the officials knew because they are
00:10:28the youngest, mashallah, the young child, to the oldest, following up on Facebook
00:10:32and following up on what is happening and publishing, and we saw
00:10:36people's protests and we saw the issue of breakdowns
00:10:39of cars in the markets. They did not take action. What do you want
00:10:43to investigate now? They investigated and belatedly.
00:10:46We confined the result. Are
00:10:49Were these tanks emptied? If I put
00:10:52good gasoline in them now, were
00:10:55the tanks emptied of the previous fuel? Did it go to certain stations or all
00:10:58stations? Is there there
00:11:02certain stations that received this material? How did the owners
00:11:06of the violating stations receive this material? I mean, this issue is
00:11:09very complex. This issue that I want to investigate and internal control and other internal
00:11:13control, I mean, one day I used to work in internal control
00:11:17and I know the method of internal control until the report is made and the
00:11:20recommendation is made and it is transferred to the concerned authorities and a decision is taken. The damage has been done.
00:11:27Mr. Khalid, the ministry states, the Ministry of Energy states
00:11:30that the review takes place for all stages
00:11:34of the supply chain. What does that indicate? What does
00:11:37doing that mean now? Why were these
00:11:41steps and these stages not revealed before
00:11:44the gasoline reached the consumer and these cars or
00:11:48vehicles were damaged?
00:11:51Well, unfortunately, today there is no
00:11:55early warning system regarding these
00:11:58core and sensitive issues.
00:12:02Today the country and all countries of the world
00:12:07transportation, for electricity supply,
00:12:11transportation, food transportation in the first
00:12:14place, citizen transportation.
00:12:17The problems, I really wonder
00:12:21where are the details or procedures that
00:12:25the Ministry of Energy or the Syrian Petroleum Company could take regarding
00:12:28examining these issues and tracking them before
00:12:32the disaster occurs, as happened during the past
00:12:35period? This is a temporary measure, I
00:12:39expect. There is no general
00:12:43matter, and we saw it during the past crises, during
00:12:47the past two months, no result was reached
00:12:50regarding the shortage
00:12:54of the material. The market or its rise
00:12:56or its poor quality that
00:13:01people. Of course,
00:13:04I repeat, this issue has been ongoing for more than two months.
00:13:08During this time, we have faced a lot of suffering.
00:13:10People are facing difficulties. We are approaching winter,
00:13:14and the biggest fear was
00:13:17because of the diesel that
00:13:20will be sold in the markets at reduced prices between
00:13:22115. And the possibility of fraud
00:13:26today, without finding another material for gasoline,
00:13:30it is one type of gasoline that was manipulated
00:13:33and caused a lot of damage. People, of course,
00:13:36from this point, I want to launch a demand
00:13:40and a request that I submit to the President
00:13:43regarding the dismissal or removal of Mr. Qablawi from his position
00:13:47for three important
00:13:49and basic reasons, which is his poor management of the oil file during the past
00:13:53period, and
00:13:59at this time, actually,
00:14:03the difficult one. Well, what is the role that you
00:14:07play in the People's Assembly? What are your capabilities,
00:14:09Mr. Khalid? Mr. Khalid, regarding this
00:14:13problem, what are the capabilities of the Assembly in perhaps
00:14:17holding the concerned parties accountable before the People's Assembly in revealing
00:14:21the results related to this investigation and what
00:14:26in this regard? Yes, actually, Mr.
00:14:29Iqbal, the head of the Energy Committee, is
00:14:32following this issue
00:14:35the officials.
00:14:38Also, the results have not yet
00:14:43this matter. Any results of these investigations
00:14:49sector.
00:14:52In the People's Assembly, God willing, next week,
00:14:55there will be a session or the first ordinary session that we will hold
00:14:59after the formation of the Council. Actually, we will demand
00:15:03monthly or semi-monthly reports on the work of this ministry
00:15:06since we are in the Energy Committee
00:15:09and inform the other members and the committee
00:15:12and even, I mean, publish them if possible
00:15:16so that other citizens can see them in order to. Okay, okay, okay,
00:15:20let me go back to the issue of accountability, I mean,
00:15:23before reaching the President of the Assembly, why doesn't
00:15:27the People's Assembly take similar steps related to
00:15:31the issue of accountability and what
00:15:35in this regard?
00:15:39During the past period, you saw, I mean, the Minister of Energy was summoned
00:15:42to the Syrian Parliament.
00:15:46There were many questions, actually, that he did not answer. They were sent in writing.
00:15:50We are waiting for these answers to arrive during the upcoming
00:15:54period, God willing. They promised us that many
00:15:58raised and delivered to
00:16:02the Minister during the session will be answered, God
00:16:05willing.
00:16:08Okay, I return to you, Mr. Abdul Razzaq. What are the available
00:16:11mechanisms for you in the Consumer Protection Association now,
00:16:15at this specific
00:16:16stage?
00:16:19Oh, madam, I mean, we will talk simply, Professor Dima.
00:16:23We are saying that there is a stumbling in the performance of the Ministry
00:16:26of Energy, a clear stumbling, as evidenced by the recurrence
00:16:29of existing crises. The previous gasoline crisis,
00:16:33the sudden rise in gasoline and fuel prices.
00:16:36Third, the failure to reduce fuel prices when they
00:16:40were reduced globally. I mean, actually, there is a stumbling and a breaking
00:16:44of the complaining and a reduction of the complaining. We have, if there is a proper mechanism, it is supposed
00:16:48that digital transformation is the basis of our work. We must
00:16:51work according to the directives of the President, we must work
00:16:55according to the directives of the government in terms of digital transformation and knowing
00:16:58the measures taken at every moment. I mean, by clicking a button
00:17:02in my office, I must know everything that is happening in the country regarding my ministry, regarding
00:17:06my work. We find that in the field of the Ministry of Energy, there
00:17:09is a shortcoming in this field. There must be a transition to digital
00:17:13control in a good way, just as we are doing
00:17:16in shops, like the Ministry of Industry and Trade. The Ministry of Trade
00:17:19and Industry created a QR code for shops. We must also create a QR code
00:17:22for fuel stations
00:17:26and know where the defect is and have continuous communication between them and the ministry
00:17:30so that we identify the defect before it occurs and escalates. Otherwise,
00:17:34after things are over, there
00:17:38is no result now. There is no justification for opening an investigation. The
00:17:41matter is over. If I want to open an investigation, I mean, there are no
00:17:45results, and the consumer will not care. I am speaking, of course, on behalf of the consumer. The consumer
00:17:49will not care what the results are. If we want
00:17:52to address this issue, there must be actual
00:17:56digital transformation, not
00:17:59matter. There is a lot of delay. All countries of the world
00:18:02have undergone digital transformation and moved on, and you saw how
00:18:06the cash was also used
00:18:09by one of the ministers. He used it
00:18:13in a host country. This means I have the ability
00:18:16and the possibility, and it has been two years now, so the defect
00:18:20that was there must be avoided.
00:18:23They have taken sufficient time and more than that, which means I feel that there is a shortcoming
00:18:27in this matter. Well, what are the mechanisms? Are there clear
00:18:31mechanisms through which a citizen today can submit a documented complaint,
00:18:34especially since the issue of compensating
00:18:38for damages now has many cases where
00:18:41vehicles or
00:18:44cars were damaged by
00:18:48the gasoline that arrived? Well, how can
00:18:51this problem be dealt with today for affected
00:18:54citizens?
00:18:58Of course, the affected citizen will suffer alone. I mean, he will not be able to file a lawsuit
00:19:02against the Ministry of Energy. What can the citizen do? I mean, we will say
00:19:06later what will happen. What happened has happened. Nothing can be done unless
00:19:09lawyers volunteer and file a lawsuit
00:19:12over the causes of the damage after the investigations are completed. Of course, I don't know when
00:19:16the ministry's investigations will be completed. They determine responsibility. There
00:19:20must be communication, just as the Ministry of Trade and Industry did. The Ministry
00:19:23of Energy
00:19:26must establish communication between citizens and stations. Any
00:19:29defect found immediately through the QR code. A QR code specifically for energy
00:19:33and not for shops and prices and other prices. Specifically for energy.
00:19:37They communicate immediately. Scanning the QR
00:19:40code at the station immediately informs the ministry directly.
00:19:44Action is taken immediately. Representatives from the ministry
00:19:47come out, of course, with the participation of the concerned parties in other ministries, which are
00:19:50the Ministry of Trade and Industry, regarding prices, the issue of weighing.
00:19:53This is a very important issue. Until now, the issue of weighing we are not addressing
00:19:57it because we are talking about the issue
00:20:00of the material, the nature of the material. But the issue of weighing is a very important issue
00:20:04and many cases have been ضبط, and even the lady
00:20:07who distributes, there are many cases of
00:20:10manipulation in weighing, manipulation in measuring, manipulation in weights. All
00:20:14these matters, actually, must be dealt with immediately
00:20:17and directly. Actually, if there is no direct communication, a hotline,
00:20:21a hotline, as they call it, between the ministry and
00:20:24citizens, just as we in the Consumer Protection Association, we are talking about
00:20:28having a hotline, we have WhatsApp always open, we have
00:20:31our headquarters and the Director of Internal Trade and Consumer Protection in Bab
00:20:34al-Jabieh. We receive complaints directly
00:20:39Facebook. The issue is dealt with immediately and the complaint is transferred directly to the concerned
00:20:43authorities. But we hope that the concerned authorities will deal with the issue
00:20:47more quickly. Well, this point, I want to end
00:20:50with you, Mr. Khalid, regarding citizen complaints
00:20:53and due to the damages inflicted
00:20:57on vehicles today, is there any specific
00:21:00body that should perhaps take over this
00:21:02problem?
00:21:04Of course, it is the regulatory bodies in
00:21:06the ministry.
00:21:09The Syrian Petroleum Company is responsible for receiving these complaints, but unfortunately, during
00:21:13the past period, for example, Sadcop issued a statement in this
00:21:16regard, saying that it conducted a survey of a certain
00:21:20number of samples from several governorates,
00:21:24but the result was that 96.5%
00:21:28of these samples were found to be safe and conforming to specifications. Well,
00:21:31how did people's cars, their vehicles,
00:21:35their livelihoods break down during the past this statement
00:21:38and also the Ministry
00:21:42of Energy, in a statement, said
00:21:45that the website or the program it launched is
00:21:49its own. And no complaints
00:21:53program, which is a disaster. I mean, there is a problem on
00:21:57the ground that officials are trying to deny.
00:22:00Well, how long will this continue?
00:22:04God knows, actually, today
00:22:07a great role and responsibility falls on us as members
00:22:10of the People's Assembly. Yes, true. We will try
00:22:13during the past period, in the upcoming session, God willing, to
00:22:17focus on this issue, especially the issue of
00:22:20submitting reports from these bodies
00:22:24to the People's Assembly, and as I mentioned earlier, and studying them
00:22:28and reviewing them, at least as committee members and as
00:22:31members of the People's Assembly, and taking the appropriate
00:22:34decisions and measures and communicating with
00:22:37officials to resolve these issues and address them better.
00:22:40Well, Mr. Abdul Razzaq, you mentioned earlier the issue of the importance
00:22:44of having a hotline between the ministry
00:22:48and citizens. Do you, in the Consumer Protection Association, have any direct
00:22:51communication with citizens and listen to citizen
00:22:55complaints in this case? Are there any actions taken
00:22:59by you in light of this
00:23:02problem?
00:23:06Of course, the problem is in our internal system for the Consumer Protection Association.
00:23:09We are a non-executive body, not authorized to organize reports
00:23:13in this reality. We transmit our observations
00:23:17the sites, we transmit them to the concerned authorities. My colleague who spoke in Deir
00:23:20ez-Zor says that the Ministry of Energy
00:23:24the hotline. This is not an excuse. I am supposed to, if the complainant
00:23:28does not complain, I must go to the place of the complaint. I must make repeated
00:23:31tours. Did they make tours to these fuel
00:23:35stations that distributed this material during this period? Do they have news or not?
00:23:38I doubt they don't have news. I doubt they have news about this issue
00:23:42and they know this. There is a certain defect, actually, that the ministry has not
00:23:45disclosed yet. This defect exists, but I do not want
00:23:50social media pages.
00:23:54There have been all kinds of interpretations regarding this issue. We do not need to mention
00:23:57them, but I believe that there is a certain defect
00:24:01that may be intentional, and I
00:24:04act of disposing of this material and distributing it to some
00:24:07stations is a controversial issue, actually, and there are many
00:24:11question marks about it. But we do not accuse anyone.
00:24:14Of course, our government is working. The Ministry of Energy, may God reward them, is
00:24:18working. But we always , out of love and reproach,
00:24:22tell them that there is a shortcoming in their work. I hope they will exert more effort
00:24:25and compensate the citizen a little. The citizen does not want to
00:24:29pay for repairs, nor does he want to pay money, nor does he want to be out of work. I mean,
00:24:33hundreds of thousands of hours of work were disrupted by this process, and all
00:24:36of it is a return to national income. Second, the issue of broken-down vehicles, the issue
00:24:40of spare parts. All of this money is being wasted. This money
00:24:44is not allowed. I mean, this is considered a waste of public money, I mean, under the heading of
00:24:47waste of public money. That's how I see it. Because ultimately, it is public money
00:24:51that represents public money and is deposited into the state treasury,
00:24:55whether through taxes or through fuel. Now, many people have stopped buying fuel.
00:24:58Their work has been disrupted, and I know many who have vehicles and work
00:25:02with them, whether in transporting
00:25:04passengers or other types of transportation, they are working. Actually, they have been out of
00:25:07work. I mean, it is not fair that I lose a week of work,
00:25:11and it is said that it will take three months to clean up. It is said that it will take two months. It is said that after
00:25:1510 days, it is said that the ministry sent new quantities. All this talk
00:25:19does not convince the citizen. The citizen still has some doubt
00:25:22about this issue, and his work is disrupted. If there is not a clear and explicit
00:25:26decision from the ministry regarding the issue of the supervisory
00:25:29process as a whole or regarding the issue of importing
00:25:33derivatives and monitoring before distributing this
00:25:36material? Madam, I have nothing to do
00:25:40with importing derivatives. I have
00:25:43issue. This issue is specific to the Ministry of Energy. It
00:25:49there is a defect. I want to go to the gas station and get clean
00:25:52and suitable gasoline because I am paying for it. As
00:25:55you identified the defect earlier, I asked you about
00:25:59where this defect lies in parallel with this problem.
00:26:04The defect lies in the lack of transparency,
00:26:08citizens, and the failure to conduct prior tours and prior planning
00:26:11for the market situation. I mean, we do not have supervisory tours that identify
00:26:15the defect before it occurs and escalates. I mean, it was possible to discover the news,
00:26:19the defect from the beginning. I mean, we see a station. Immediately,
00:26:23there is a problem with the station. Immediately, I put an X on it. I close the station.
00:26:26I inventory what fuel it has. I know
00:26:29what came. I don't wait for all quantities to be distributed,
00:26:33and after the quantity is distributed, I say, "Well, it happened." Well, I want to conclude
00:26:36with you, Mr. Khalid, regarding the context
00:26:39of the current role today in the People's Assembly. To what
00:26:42extent can the People's Assembly adopt this issue and take
00:26:46supervisory measures in parallel with this
00:26:49process that is taking place and the investigations by the Ministry
00:26:53of Energy?
00:26:55Exactly as I mentioned earlier,
00:26:59the investigations carried out by the People's Assembly are
00:27:02a form of accountability
00:27:05officials and requesting reports and documents
00:27:08from this responsible entity, whether it is a ministry or
00:27:11the Syrian Petroleum Company or other bodies
00:27:15and ministries. Actually, this is our role as members of the People's Assembly to
00:27:18follow up on what is happening on the ground. Today, we
00:27:22are in a crisis of credibility between the citizen and the government and
00:27:25between ministries. We hope that we as members of the People's
00:27:29Assembly will play this role. We can connect people
00:27:33with the government and ministries and get out of this
00:27:36predicament that we fell into, unfortunately, during the past
00:28:02across the Syrian border have intensified and who is behind them
00:28:24country
00:28:29there is a story worth
00:28:31telling. And perhaps you are the one who sees it first
00:28:35We at Syria
00:28:39TV launch the people's
00:28:42camera Document
00:28:44Send and be a contributing part in
00:28:48making the news The people in the people's
00:28:51camera your lens makes
00:28:55the news.
00:29:49The Anti-Narcotics Department announced the thwarting of an attempt
00:29:52to smuggle more than 100,000 Captagon pills that were
00:29:56heading to Saudi Arabia through the Nassib border crossing
00:29:59The department clarified that the shipment was
00:30:02hidden inside the spare tire of a refrigerated truck that was
00:30:06heading to Saudi Arabia This comes days after seizing
00:30:10an attempt to smuggle Captagon drug pills through
00:30:13the Jdeidat Yabous border crossing with Lebanon, which contained
00:30:17129 Captagon pills intended
00:30:21for entry into Syrian territory This operation came
00:30:24after the Anti-Narcotics Department announced
00:30:27the implementation of two security operations in the governorates of Deir
00:30:30ez-Zor and Al-Hasakah It seized a network for smuggling
00:30:34drugs whose activity extends from the Iraqi border
00:30:37into Syrian territory This resulted in
00:30:40the arrest of the network leader and three of
00:30:43its members. The Ministry of Interior announced
00:30:47the results of drug control during last September, where
00:30:51it reported the dismantling of four international drug trafficking
00:30:54networks, and the seizure of about 4 million Captagon pills
00:30:58and
