Syria will once again be able to participate in the annual meetings of the World Bank and the IMF

Although the World Bank and the IMF have suspended all operations in the country since 2011, the Minister of Finance presented opportunities for recovery projects and pleaded for the reintegration of Syria in the analysis reports of the two institutions.

The reintegration of Syria into the regional and international bodies continues.
