Türkiye’s UN envoy Ahmet Yildiz has called for increased international efforts to support Syria’s rebuilding, praising recent steps by the US, UK, and EU to ease economic sanctions on the country.
Speaking at a UN Security Council meeting on Syria, Yildiz highlighted that Syria has begun a new phase of recovery after leadership changes in December. Since then, more than 500,000 Syrian refugees and 1.2 million internally displaced people have returned to their homes.
He stressed that lifting sanctions and reducing economic pressure are essential to speeding up reconstruction, which is key to stabilizing the country, enabling refugee returns, and promoting reconciliation.
Yildiz noted Türkiye’s active role in pushing diplomatic efforts to remove barriers to Syria’s recovery. He pointed to recent high-level meetings between regional and global leaders as positive steps forward.
He also welcomed the creation of two national commissions in Syria focused on transitional justice and missing persons, calling these important milestones for healing the nation and addressing the conflict’s aftermath.
Reaffirming Türkiye’s commitment to Syria’s unity and sovereignty, Yildiz urged that agreements for centralized governance be fully implemented. He warned against the dangers of terrorist groups and foreign political interference.
“A stable, unified Syria at peace with itself and its neighbors — one that does not serve as a safe haven for terrorists — will help ensure security and prosperity across the region,” he said.
