Syrian Energy Minister Mohammad Al-Bashir held talks on Tuesday with a World Bank delegation on potential cooperation in key infrastructure projects, particularly in the water, electricity, and sewage sectors.
Talks during the meeting focused on investment priorities outlined by the Syrian government, including efforts to rehabilitate and modernize the country’s power infrastructure and strengthen water-resource management programs to improve service delivery and enhance operational sustainability.
The World Bank delegation expressed interest in the proposed projects and reiterated its readiness to assess possible areas of support in line with agreed priorities, aiming to add value to essential public-service sectors.
The talks come as part of broader government efforts to restore critical public services, improve water-resource efficiency, and upgrade electricity networks in support of economic recovery and better service provision for citizens.
