Syria’s Big Meeting: Planning a Brighter Future! π
Hey there! Have you ever wondered how a country decides its future? Well, something exciting is happening in Syria! On January 4 and 5, people from all over Syria are coming together in the capital city, Damascus, for a huge national conference. π
This is a super important event because it’s the first big meeting since a big change in Syria’s government. Leaders, community members, and groups like youth and women’s organizations will talk about how to make Syria a better place. They want to create new rules (called a constitution) and form a new government within a month! π
One big topic is about making peace. They are planning to dissolve (that means to end) all the armed groups so everyone can live safely. This includes groups like Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, which used to be part of the fighting. ποΈ
But that’s not all! Syria is also talking to other countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (that’s a group of nearby countries like Kuwait and Saudi Arabia). They want to be friends and work together. ππ€
Syria’s interim Foreign Minister, Asaad Hassan al-Shibani, thanked these countries for helping the Syrian people. He said, “We want to be part of the Arab family again!” πΈπΎβ€οΈπΈπ¦π°πΌ
The leaders from the Gulf countries also said they support Syria. They talked about helping to rebuild Syria’s economy (that’s how a country makes money and takes care of its people). They even discussed lifting (or removing) international sanctions, which are rules that can make it hard for a country to trade and do business. πΌπͺ
Everyone at the meeting agreed that it’s important to respect Syria’s borders and let the Syrian people decide their own future without other countries interfering. πβ
It’s an exciting time for Syria, and the whole world is watching to see how the country moves forward. Maybe one day, you might even visit Syria and see how they have built a brighter future! π
