00:06:10political and international relations, Dr. Abdul Basit Abu Nabbut. Dr. Abdul
00:06:14Basit, welcome. First, how do
00:06:17you interpret the visit of Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shaibani to
00:06:21the State of Qatar in light of these regional
00:06:25and international developments?
00:06:29May God bless you, Professor Yeman, good evening to you and the viewers.
00:06:32A new diplomatic tour conducted by His Excellency
00:06:35the Syrian Foreign Minister
00:06:38came after a visit that Syria
00:06:41made, visits towards the capital Riyadh
00:06:44and the capital. The visit of President Ahmed Al-Sharaa to
00:06:48the Arab Media Summit in Dubai and the previous recent visit
00:06:51to Riyadh, and after that, the Foreign Minister began a visit
00:06:55to Istanbul where he met Thomas Barak, then a visit to
00:06:58Libya and his meeting with
00:07:02military leader Khalifa Haftar,
00:07:05and today to Qatar. Syria returns to its active
00:07:09diplomatic movement and takes its new position
00:07:13within the diplomacy of solving problems and alleviating regional tensions,
00:07:17and the diplomacy
00:07:20mediations and cooperation in solving
00:07:22Arab problems and enhancing Arab cooperation and reaching
00:07:26political understandings in which
00:07:28Syria participates and is also supported by this continuous Arab movement. Okay, what about
00:07:32Syria's position in light of these regional
00:07:35and international conditions, Dr. Abdul
00:07:38Basit?
00:07:41There is a difference in priorities. Perhaps
00:07:45Syria is now really focusing on maintaining security and stability within Syria, and it
00:07:48has emerged from a period of conflict and war and also wants
00:07:52to support economic and development issues, and the issue of improving
00:07:56and reconstruction is strongly discussed, and in any visit,
00:07:59Gulf countries, which are friendly and sisterly
00:08:03to the Syrian people, realize that this is a priority for Syria. Syria
00:08:06is pursuing an integrated diplomatic path, whether in the President's diplomatic
00:08:10visits or the Foreign Minister's visits, within the dimension that seeks
00:08:13partnerships and activating investment projects and opening for reconstruction,
00:08:17and at the same time, Syria wants to reduce the intensity
00:08:20of tensions and risks to the region. It supports its Arab
00:08:24brethren in condemning all terrorist attacks they are subjected
00:08:28to. At the same time, it
00:08:31efforts, whether in solving problems within Arab
00:08:35countries, whether in Libya, Sudan, and Somalia, within
00:08:38Syria's new diplomatic outlook towards Iraq and Lebanon, and
00:08:42it does not hide any effort to alleviate
00:08:46these tensions and reach political understandings in mediation efforts in
00:08:50solving the issue of the Strait of Hormuz and Qatar's mediation efforts
00:08:55with the Pakistani side in solving the issue of
00:08:58the Strait of Hormuz have an important role. Syria now, and the problem with
00:09:02Bab al-Mandeb, has a political role and is the geopolitical
00:09:06security gateway to the northern Levant. Okay, Dr. Abdul
00:09:09Basit, how can we interpret
00:09:12the two sides' emphasis on the importance
00:09:14of increasing joint coordination and consultation to strengthen
00:09:19the region?
00:09:23This is taken on the long run. Syrian diplomacy is known
00:09:27for its long-term approach, as is Qatari diplomacy, which has managed to take a prominent
00:09:30position in solving problems and making Doha
00:09:34a capital for solving problems or a
00:09:37destination for long-term diplomacy. Problems in the region are escalating.
00:09:41There is continuous escalation,
00:09:44and these countries are keen on their security and stability. Arab countries are also
00:09:48keen on the integrated Arab security system,
00:09:51which is exposed to threats from the fallout of the war between America
00:09:54and Iran on one side, and the Houthi militia
00:09:57that launches and threatens Gulf countries and even threatens
00:10:01the entire security of the region and has threatened everyone who stands in
00:10:05its way. So, Syria is playing
00:10:08sharing these efforts, because
00:10:13not everything can be resolved only through military action. On the contrary, the diplomatic
00:10:17path, no matter how arduous and long, there is confidence
00:10:21that everyone will reach a solution that satisfies all parties. Okay,
00:10:24in your opinion, can we see
00:10:27practical steps or new agreements
00:10:30as a result of these
00:10:36Syria does not spare any effort that achieves
00:10:39Arab integration in achieving a comprehensive Arab security system.
00:10:43The issue of Syria entering any alliances depends on their feasibility
00:10:47and at the same time on the pros and cons of this alliance if
00:10:50Syria were to join it. Syria's diplomatic position today is significant and important,
00:10:54and all countries, especially regional countries, realize
00:10:58that Syria's return today
00:11:01this dimension must also be exploited diplomatically by Syria with wisdom
00:11:05so as to preserve all the files that are priorities
00:11:08for Syria in development and reconstruction and reviving
00:11:11the Syrian development economy. At the same time, integration with Arab
00:11:14countries and the region's exit from the circle of tension and risks
00:11:18through Syrian diplomatic efforts. Thank you for all
00:11:21these analyses and follow-ups, Dr. Abdul
00:11:25Abu Nabbut, researcher in political and international relations, you were
00:11:28with us from
00:11:29Damascus.
00:11:33Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad Al-Shaibani discussed with the Deputy
00:11:36Commander of the Army in Benghazi, Saddam Khalifa Haftar, the issue
00:11:40of missing Syrians in Libya during
00:11:43an official visit to the Libyan city of Benghazi
00:11:47yesterday. According to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
00:11:51the meeting discussed ways

00:12:16The markets of Al-Hasakah city
00:12:19confusion after some traders refrained from dealing
00:12:22with the old version of the Syrian Pound, following
00:12:26rumors about the cessation of exchange
00:12:29companies accredited by the Central Bank from accepting it.
00:12:33Syria TV correspondent reported that the disturbance
00:12:36affected market activity amidst
00:12:39a noticeable increase in the exchange rate of the new

00:12:44144 pounds per US dollar
00:12:48compared to 148
00:12:51pounds for buying, according to circulating prices.
00:12:55The markets, these developments raised
00:12:58concerns among citizens and traders about the impact of rumors
00:13:02on daily transactions and purchasing
00:13:05power.
00:13:11The Executive Office member for the financial sector
00:13:14in the Al-Hasakah Governorate Council, Khaled Ibrahim, denied the validity
00:13:18of circulating information regarding Tuesday being considered
00:13:21a final deadline for exchanging old Syrian
00:13:25currency or stopping dealing with it. Ibrahim
00:13:28confirmed that
00:13:31to the approved procedures for dealing with the old currency
00:13:36circulation, explaining that any adjustments
00:13:39remain linked to decisions of the official financial
00:13:42authorities concerned at the national
00:13:45level. He indicated that the circulating rumors
00:13:50confusion among citizens and economic
00:13:53activities and affected the exchange
00:13:56rate of the old currency, calling for not
00:14:00being drawn into unconfirmed information
00:14:05on official
00:14:06sources.
00:14:13Syria TV correspondent reported a severe shortage of fuel,
00:14:16especially diesel, in the cities of Aleppo and Idlib,
00:14:19which led to the closure of most gas stations due
00:14:23to the exhaustion and gasoline
00:14:27stocks. Our correspondent explained that the stations
00:14:30that are still operating are witnessing large
00:14:34car queues amidst the scarcity of gasoline
00:14:37and its availability in limited quantities.
00:14:40In this context, local sources reported
00:14:43the cessation of gasoline supply due to the low
00:14:48stations, amidst anticipation
00:14:51for the arrival of new supplies.
00:15:20For more details, joining us from Aleppo is Ibrahim
00:15:24Al-Khatib. Syria TV. Ibrahim, welcome.
00:15:26If you could put us in the picture of this crisis,
00:15:30the fuel crisis in Aleppo governorate.
00:15:33Ibrahim, put us in the picture of the crisis,
00:15:36and are there any signs of a solution or
00:15:39breakthrough?
00:15:43Good evening. In reality, this crisis is due perhaps to different reasons. The gasoline
00:15:47crisis that started a while ago, and which resulted from
00:15:50quantities of unusable gasoline that were pumped into
00:15:53a group of gas stations and fuel stations, prompted the owners of these
00:15:57stations, after several days, to refuse to accept any
00:16:00new batches of gasoline. Therefore, in Aleppo city, there are many
00:16:05gasoline is not available. Consequently, the stations that
00:16:09agreed to receive gasoline are
00:16:14great pressure. Therefore, we are standing at one of the stations that is witnessing
00:16:17pressure on gasoline primarily, but the diesel
00:16:21problem is a different problem that is directly due to the lack
00:16:25of supply, despite gas stations and fuel stations
00:16:29in all governorates of Syria sending requests
00:16:32for delivery, but no batches have actually arrived for about
00:16:36a week, which led to the sudden depletion of the quantity. Today is the first
00:16:40day of the diesel crisis. I will actually film
00:16:45from the area we are standing in. This gas station is in the middle of
00:16:49Aleppo city, in the area connecting Al-Fayd roundabout to
00:16:52Burj Al-Qalaa roundabout. There is currently
00:16:55heavy traffic at this gas station, which is considered
00:16:59one of the few gas stations where gasoline
00:17:02is available. This scene led to pressure on
00:17:06these stations that still provide the substance. However, there is
00:17:09actually another problem related to the absence of diesel.
00:17:13Diesel is currently absent from all operating gas stations in
00:17:16Aleppo governorate. I am talking about the city for now. Actually,
00:17:20in Aleppo city, there is an absence of
00:17:24diesel. Diesel is available in a number of stations in Aleppo
00:17:27countryside, but there is actually a great demand and a state
00:17:31of pressure on these stations, which actually threatens
00:17:34a disaster that may
00:17:38extend further if these gas stations and stations are not
00:17:41supplied with the necessary fuel. We are here, as I mentioned, at one
00:17:45of the stations, but a while ago I toured about ten
00:17:48stations in Aleppo city, all of which did not have
00:17:52diesel, while gasoline is available, as you can see, in the stations
00:17:55that provide it so far. This great pressure,
00:17:58the queue almost reaches
00:18:02Burj Al-Qalaa roundabout,
00:18:04which is the roundabout previously known as the Death Roundabout, towards
00:18:08the area at approximately 1
00:18:11km. Here, I mean,
00:18:14you are talking.
00:18:16Peace
00:18:20be upon you. God bless you. My name is Abu
00:18:24Zukour. Can you tell us what is the current problem?
00:18:27We went to the Express gas station, and they told us
00:18:30there was no gasoline. The people are closed.
00:18:34We came here, as you can see. Okay, it got expensive, but please provide it for us. We don't want anything
00:18:37more than that. I mean, you took your price as you wanted, but give us
00:18:41some. We don't want to feel like we're still in a crisis. Uncle,
00:18:45how long have you been waiting? About half an hour.
00:18:49At a gas station that has it, but
00:18:51some gas stations don't have it. Why did we all
00:18:55come here? If this material is not provided, we can't work or
00:18:59eat and drink. This material is like
00:19:02bread to us. The problem in general also comes down to
00:19:06the quantity of gasoline pumped. In the past period, have you been affected
00:19:10by bad gasoline? What happened to you? By God, it's not just me. Many
00:19:13cars had their engines damaged, you know?
00:19:16And if you go to any mechanic or repair shop, you'll find ten
00:19:20cars there with their engines damaged, because
00:19:23the batch of gasoline wasn't good. And now we're forced to put a little oil and a little
00:19:27octane with the gasoline to make it work. Even now you're
00:19:30still putting it in? Yes, we're afraid, you know? But thank God,
00:19:34it's working so far. But the quality of the gasoline is not like
00:19:38before, because the car engine is making noises and it's not
00:19:42powerful. God help us. This was an intervention
00:19:45from a citizen in Aleppo city, speaking about the congestion primarily,
00:19:49and also about the quality of gasoline. This quality is what primarily affected
00:19:53a number of gas stations in the governorate, which refused during the current
00:19:56week to receive any quantity of gasoline, which actually led
00:20:00to pressure on the available gas stations that accepted delivery, pending
00:20:04a full resolution of the matter and the gasoline issue
00:20:07being actually resolved for cars
00:20:11completely. As for the diesel problem, as I mentioned, it is a different problem
00:20:15related to the absence of any supplies for a
00:20:18period to the operating fuel stations in Aleppo governorate, which led
00:20:21to the complete loss of the substance. Ibrahim, are there no
00:20:25signs of a solution to this crisis, the fuel
00:20:28shortage in Aleppo?
00:20:32Actually, at the level of gasoline, as I mentioned, gasoline is available,
00:20:36but what happened is that some gas stations refused
00:20:40to receive it, this is what we were told, but at the level of diesel
00:20:42and the complete absence of the substance and the lack of supplies for a period
00:20:45until now, we have been waiting from morning until this
00:20:49moment for an official statement from the responsible
00:20:54We are talking about the press conference that was held on the 13th of last
00:20:58month, with the presence of the Minister of Energy and also the director of the Syrian
00:21:01Petroleum Company, who spoke
00:21:04conference about a comprehensive solution related to finding categories for diesel:
00:21:08the first category, the improved category, and the
00:21:13Despite almost a month having passed since this press conference, until now
00:21:17the improved category nor the subsidized category has reached Aleppo markets.
00:21:20And the regular category, which was lost
00:21:24today suddenly, without any statements, perhaps there is a problem
00:21:28with the supply related to a day or two, or the problem
00:21:31may worsen in the coming days. Thank you for all these details,
00:21:35Ibrahim Al-Khatib, Syria TV correspondent, you were with us from
00:21:38Aleppo.
