Director of the American Affairs Department at the Foreign Ministry, Qutaiba Idlbi, welcomed the U.S. Senate’s approval to repeal the Caesar Act as a step toward re-establishing cooperation with the United States based on mutual respect and shared interests.
Idlbi wrote on X that the U.S. Senate’s approval on Friday is “a response to the positive developments taking place in Syria and the constructive efforts to re-establish openness and cooperation with the United States on the basis of mutual respect and shared interests.”
He emphasized that Syrian diplomatic efforts will continue to ensure the “full and fair repeal of the Caesar Act,” to lift all forms of sanctions imposed on the Syrian people, and to restore their opportunities for a dignified life and sustainable development.
“Syria is opening a new chapter of partnership and mutual respect, moving toward a future free of sanctions- a future of dignity, development, and prosperity,” Idlbi added.
The Foreign Ministry official thanked members of the U.S. Senate who visited Syria and “courageously contributed to correcting previous policies” in recognition of the Syrian people’s suffering and their aspiration to rise again.
