Attended by Turkish Trade Minister Ömer Bolat and Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu, head of Türkiye’s Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges, the meeting focused on strengthening bilateral cooperation.
Al-Sha’ar praised Türkiye’s rapid economic growth over the past two decades, calling it “a miracle,” and emphasized that future cooperation must span all sectors — cultural, social, economic, industrial, and production.
He announced that the renewed partnership would begin with support for small and medium-sized enterprises, eventually expanding to large-scale investments. Türkiye is expected to establish production plants in Syria and export industrial goods, contributing to Syria’s reconstruction.
Referring to the 15-year break in relations due to the civil war, Al-Sha’ar said the partnership will now continue “based on mutual respect and sincerity,” and that the two nations “will be together” in rebuilding efforts.
