The EU is debating lifting economic sanctions on Syria to support the nation's recovery while maintaining measures targeting the Assad regime.

European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas expressed optimism that EU ministers convening in Brussels might agree to lift economic sanctions on Syria.

Officials have noted that the discussions center on a political decision to remove sanctions hindering Syria's economy while preserving measures targeting the Assad regime.

Kallas emphasized the importance of fostering stability in Syria, stating, "It is clear that we want there to be jobs and livelihoods for the people, so that it would be a more stable country."
