Syrian President Assad's Important Interview with Chinese Media

From de-dollarization to the weaponization of the world's currency, rebuilding Syria, the US-led war of terror and war of attrition against the Syrian people, the newly announced strategic Syrian-Chinese partnership, the Chinese Belt and Road Initiative, the US Army's partnership with ISIS, Al Qaeda, and the Kurdish SDF separatist terrorists, the theft of Syrian oil and wheat, and the Western neo-liberalism fascism were among some of the issues the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad discussed in the interview conducted with him by the Chinese Media Group.

The interview with the Syrian president took place in Beijing after concluding the state visit Bashar al-Assad alongside the Asia Games 2023 in which he met the Chinese leadership including a summit with President Xi Jinping and the Chinese prime minister.

Syria and China Crown their 7 Decades Relations with a Strategic Partnership

During the summit between the presidents of Syria and China, President Xi Jinping of China announced the establishment of a strategic partnership relation between his country and Syria, and President Bashar Al Assad emphasized the importance of China in leading the world toward a multipolar order away from the US hegemony and terror.

"Over the 67 years since the establishment of diplomatic relations, the Chinese-Syrian relationship has remained steadfast in the face of changes in international situations, and the friendship between the two countries remains firm over time.
Today we will announce the establishment of the Chinese-Syrian strategic partnership, and this will be an important turning point in the history of bilateral relations." ~President Xi Jinping

President Bashar Al Assad in his reply:

"We look with hope at China’s constructive role in the international arena and reject all attempts to weaken this role through interference in China’s internal affairs, or attempts to create tension in the South China Sea or in Southeast Asia.
This visit is an important visit in its timing and circumstances, as a multipolar world is being formed today that will restore balance and stability to the world, and it is the duty of all of us to seize this moment for the sake of a bright and promising future."

China is the world's largest economy in real economic measures, its enormous skilled, educated, and hardworking manpower, its massive area and strategic location, its advanced high tech, and its production capacity, not to mention its surplus of funding, everything opposite to where the USA stands today and yet the USAians claim they're the leading economy in the world and are relentlessly working hard to destabilize all the other countries especially the main two rivals Russia and China, and even their own allies like Germany and France.

Syria's miraculous steadfastness in the face of the US-led war of terror and attrition for over 12.5 years with the enormous sacrifices the Syrians endured on all levels has paved the way for the rest of the world to stand up to the bullies.

China's double vetos at the United Nations Security Council defending Syria from another NATO adventure brought it into the crosshairs of the 'elitists' ruling the West and brought it up to pose as a major player in the world's affairs.

The world needs China and definitely doesn't need more of the NATO member states and especially their leaders, the USA.

Dozens of New Investment Projects in Syria Despite Western Sanctions

First of all, let me start by telling you what the US and its satellite European Union countries call sanctions are miscategorized, these are war crimes and crimes against humanity dubbed as sanctions, there's only one entity in the world that can impose sanctions as per international law and that's neither the USA nor any of its allies nor all of them combined, that entity is called the United Nations Security Council, dysfunctional as it might be.

Syria has been under so-called US sanctions ever since 1956, if some think it's related to the current US-led war of regime change in the country, it has been ever escalating since and it's all to serve the antichrist project of establishing an anti-Jewish Zionist state in Palestine called Israel.

The latest packages of the blockade and unilateral coercive measures, the correct legal term for what western officials and news media claim are sanctions, are the harshest imposed on a country, not even Cuba or North Korea is under the same, to put it mildly, it's all presented by the US for its part under a so-called Caesar Act, and by the European Union under what they cannot hide when explaining by terming them: 'EU restrictive measures against the Syrian regime'..!

Despite all the above and below-mentioned hardships imposed on the Syrian people, dozens of new investment projects have been licensed worth 1.5 trillion Syrian Liras employing more than 4,000 workers, the above video explains, and the link at the end of this piece details.

The United States of America managed to lead dozens of countries around the world to sponsor terrorists of Al Qaeda and its affiliates and offshoots like ISIS to wage a relentless 11 years of war of terror against the Syrian people, it's not enough that the US Army blatantly steals Syrian oil and wheat in broad daylight, and it's not enough the USA and its cronies occupy large parts of Syrian lands coincidentally where Syria's main agricultural and oil and gas fields are, or like in the case of the US Army at the Al Tanf cross-borders between Syria, Iraq, and Jordan, or the Turkish regime of madman Erdogan occupying and disrupting parts of the M4 international highway, all under the false humanitarian guise.

Syria Receives Belarusian 2nd Batch of Humanitarian Aid

Syria received the second batch of humanitarian aid presented by Belarus which is comprised of six MAZ transport trucks as a gift from the people of Belarus to the people of Syria.

The first batch was delivered back in November 2021 and it included medical products, electrical transformers, and foodstuffs.

The shipment arrived in the Syrian coastal city of Latakia and was received in a ceremony attended by Syrian officials and the ambassador of Belarus to Syria.

Syria and Belarus have long-standing good relations on all levels, Belarus is among the few countries that didn't join the US-led war of terror against Syria politically, militarily, economically, or in any way possible, and the Syrian people show great gratitude to the countries that helped them, especially that the enemy has resorted to all sorts of terror to destroy Syria in order to move on to their next target.

Finally, Syria and Iran Agree to Open a Joint Bank to Bypass Western Blockade

The two long-time allies, Syria and Iran, finally agreed to open a joint bank and a number of branches in both countries to facilitate their bilateral trade and money exchange, the agreement was reached during a visiting Iranian delegation.

The Iranian economic delegation visiting Damascus was chaired by Iran's minister for roads and urban developments, the two countries also agreed to open a number of free trade zones and to increase the production of Iranian products in Syrian factories, Iran would benefit from Syria's access to the Mediterranean reducing its trade route significantly.

Despite having 4-decades strong relations, and despite both countries being under a blockade imposed on them by a US-led consortium of US stooges, Iran remains among Syria's least trade partners in volumes lagging way below some of Syria's outspoken enemies! The same goes for Russia whose trade with Syria including the weapons sale remains the 3rd behind China and Lebanon amounting to 6% of Syria's foreign trade.

Syria and Iran have previously forged a number of economic agreements which were stalled mainly by the Iranian former 'reformist' government's lack of initiative who were promised free trade with the west once they sign the nuclear deal dubbed the JCPOA, they shouldn't have trusted the west and should have strengthened their relations with their own long-standing allies instead, now they're realizing this and hopefully they'll fix this short-sighted policy.

Syria Entered the Earthquake Era - New Minor Earthquake strikes Northeast

The 'Earthquake era' is a term coined by Dr. Ballani, the former director of the National Seismic Center in Syria in the year 2000 when he was referring to the tectonic changes expected to occur during the foreseen future that time which we are living through now.

A minor earthquake struck about 5 kilometers deep in the ground in the southwestern countryside of the Hasakah province, in Syria's furthest northeast, the quake registered 3.4 degrees on the Richter scale.

This earthquake is one in a series of earthquakes the region witnessed since the beginning of this millennium, as predicted by the former director of the Syrian National Seismic Center, the culprit he referred to is the Arab-African subversive fault that extends from the Iskenderun Strip in the north to the Gulf of Aqaba and the Red Sea and then to the southern outskirts of the African continent with a length ranging between 3-4 thousand kilometers.

Details about this last earthquake and a link to a brief of Dr. Ballani's prediction in this post: Minor Earthquake of 3.4 Degrees Strikes Southeast of Al Hasakah City.

The Turkish Lira Lost 6 Times its Value During Erdogan's War on Syria

The Turkish Lira continuing its slide in front of the US dollar, despite the US dollar's weakness, it lost 6 times its value since 2010, the eve of the US-led war of terror on Syria in which the regime of the Turkish madman Erdogan played an essential role in it.

The exchange rate reached 1 US$ = 9.22 Turkish Lira, a record low. It was at the end of December 2010: 1 US$ = 1.54 Turkish Lira.

When the European Union blocked the Turkish joining its bloc, the Turkish economy was facing a complete disaster, it was only because of Syria opening the Arab world to Turkey ignoring the 4 centuries of the Ottoman bloody history and the Turkish occupation of the Syrian Iskandaron Strip since 1939, and the fact that Turkey uses the Euphrates River as a weapon against the Syrian people, suddenly, the Turkish economy received a boom and the Turkish pariah became a model in economic development, this was picked up fast by the CIA which wanted to use the radicalism in Erdogan's anti-Islamic Muslim Brotherhood ideology as a role model to spread and control the Arab World, and he believed in his and his masters' ability to do so.

Ever since George W. Bush tasked Erdogan with a leading role in the 'Greater Israel Project' there were rivers of blood spilled and the Turkish economy was weaponized against the Arabs and especially against Syria, and that's when Syria closed its doors again in the face of the madman who stole Syrian oil, factories, wheat, and even drinking water, and smuggled into Syria tens of thousands of terrorists, 7000 of them every single week over the past 10.5 years.

Turkish Citizens Collecting Leftover Food During Erdogan Speech on Economic Growth!

During a speech delivered by the Turkish madman Erdogan in Adana in which he was bragging of his country's economic development under his dictatorship, the Turkish citizens were busy collecting food leftover by his bodyguards.

Erdogan's popularity is unquestionable and can be seen in his public speeches where hundreds of Turkish common people gather to attend the Sultan wannabe speeches because either they love him or they just need to have a day of enough food for their families they can collect from the leftovers thrown by Erdogan's massive number of well-beefed bodyguards.

The above picture taken by a Turkish journalist was published on the rare Turkish opposition media shows Turkish citizens collecting the leftover food during Erdogan's speech in which, ironically, he was 'telling tales of the economic growth his 2 decades of dictatorship achieved' in the country.

Every country is subject to hardship especially those countries that are attacked from outside, what I personally fail to understand is when the country facing the hardship is the same country that can allocate enough resources to invade other countries, and that requires enormous spending. This is exactly the case in NATO countries, instead of spending their taxpayers' hard-earned monies on the development of their countries, they spend it on wars and destruction of other countries and on their rulers' and their juntas' top brass affairs.

NATO countries are more like the unpopular regimes they spin up in countries they colonize and call it 'underdeveloped' countries to which they force-export their excesses of democracies, freedoms, and lifestyle.

Does the U.S. Army have any peacekeeping missions in Syria?

Don't laugh, yet, the above is a real question asked by a member of the Quora Q & A wiki platform, it was sent to my inbox for an answer.

The person asking cannot be blamed for ignorance of the nature of missions the US Army carries out around the world, let alone the heinous and obvious criminal mission in Syria, the western audience is bombarded with brainwashing media by the Pentagon's mouthpieces the likes of the BBC, the Guardian, Washington Post, New York Times, CNN, Fox News, Sky News, et al, just see how all of them rally behind the US interventionist wars and how they demonize the Pentagon's targets.

I'm sharing my answer here to preserve it from Quora's heavy censorship and to share the information in it with readers of this platform:

Q: Does the U.S. Army have any peacekeeping missions in Syria?

My Answer:
I’m sorry but the question itself contains two contradicting phrases: the ‘US Army’ and ‘Peacekeeping’, the two do not go along.

What US officials would label as ‘peacekeeping missions’ is literally an occupation of territories of another country, or if invited by a state official in that country that would be to protect an unpopular ruling class from their people.

John Kerry, the former US secretary of state and career legislator with vast experience in foreign policy, international law, and the US’s own legislation, he simply explains it:

“The Russians were invited in by the legitimate ‘regime’ and we’re not invited in, we’re flying in airspace there where they (the Syrian air defense) can turn on air defense and we have a very different scene..”

Listen to him in the leaked recording in this explosive post:

The Pentagon Threatening to Revive ISIS

So, the US Army presence in Syria is anything but ‘peacekeeping’ they’re not welcomed in the country, in the matter of fact, they’re asked to leave not only by the Syrian state but also by most other countries around the world and even by the United States Security Council resolutions they vote in favor each time, in each of the UNSC resolutions relating to Syria, the preface starts with: ‘respecting Syria’s sovereignty and integral territories’, foreign forces uninvited by the Syrian state which holds a seat in the United Nations and attends UNSC meetings representing Syria, these foreign forces are occupation forces and are not ‘peacekeeping’ missions.

Actually, the US Army has been reported to steal Syrian oil, wheat, burn down wheat fields, and smuggle Syrian gold and antiquities, not to mention aiding terrorist groups including ISIS as in the above report.

Hearing is Not Like Seeing:
NATO’s Terrorists Burning Syrian Wheat Crops – Video

and:

Trump burns Syrian wheat fields on Christian Sabbath

It’s not only in Syria, the US forces have never been part of any real peacekeeping mission anywhere in the world, their missions would always be to aid the unpopular side of any conflict.

Biden Circumvents Biden's Sanctions on Syria Pushing Lebanon toward Damascus!

The Biden junta, the 'most inclusive and diverse' US regime ever, tried to squeeze the last breaths out of the Lebanese and the Syrian people found itself mending the ties between these two countries and bringing them closer to each other instead.

Lebanese delegation (left) during the press conference with the Syrian delegation (right) yesterday in Damascus announcing Syria's approval to allow Lebanon to import gas and electricity

After long months of the US 'maximum pressure' policy against the Syrian and Lebanese people since the last quarter of 2019 by both the Orange and Pale regimes of the White House, the US ambassador to Lebanon ordered the Lebanese president to seek Syria's approval to allow the transit of gas supplies from Egypt and electricity supplies from Jordan through Syria into Lebanon.

The Lebanese president informed the caretaker government who sent a high level delegation to Syria yesterday and obtained Syria's approval to allow the transit to Lebanon, this is the first time a Lebanese delegation of this level visits Damascus since before the beginning of the 'US-led war of terror and war of attrition against the Syrian people' dubbed the Arab Spring.

The US junta of Biden continuing the policies of Trump wanted to implode Lebanon from within and turn the Lebanese people against Hezb Allah by blaming the Hezb for the US-imposed blockade against the Lebanese people: 'if you want the blockade lifted you disarm Hezb Allah to give Israel free hand in the region, again,' and this is the only solution. Instead, Hezb Allah chief surprised the US and Proxies by announcing the shipments of gasoline and fuel needed for generating the electricity in Lebanon is coming from Iran bypassing the US blockade.

Momentarily, the US ambassador to Lebanon called the Lebanese president and informed him that the US allows Lebanon to import gas from Egypt and electricity from Jordan but he has to talk to the Syrian authorities to allow it through Syria, the only access Lebanon has through land, thus, the US ambassador literally exposed her regime's responsibility in the suffering of the Lebanese people and gave Hezb Allah a victory and added moral it didn't ask for.

While Biden Forces Continue to Occupy the Oil Fields, Syria Turns to Solar Power

The work on a new 100-megawatt solar power project was launched in Damascus countryside amid the severe shortage of electricity Syria is facing due to the inability of running the country's thermal power plants while mercenary forces of the US army loyal to the Joseph Biden regime continue their occupation of Syria's main oil fields in the northeast of the country.

Syria was not only self-sufficient in electricity prior to the US-led war of terror and war of attrition waged on it early 2011, but it was also exporting electricity to neighboring countries like Lebanon, most of Syria's electricity comes from the hydroelectrical dam on the Euphrates which in turn is in its lowest operating capacity due to the Turkish blocking of water flowing into the river, a war crime I've reported in a number of earlier posts.

The rest of the electricity Syria was producing came from a number of thermal power plants that use gas and fuel which comes directly from Syria's main oil fields in the provinces of Deir Ezzor and Raqqa, these fields are currently under the occupation of the Biden forces based on the standing order given to them by his predecessor, you remember: 'I am leaving troops in Syria to keep the oil, I like oil' statement by Trump? Here's a reminder: Trump Forces Continue Looting Syria’s Oil in his Last Days in Office

The US, with its control over the dollar which every bank in the world deals with controls those banks, is blocking Syria's access to international markets to import the oil the Syrians need to bake their bread, cook their food, and use their vehicles, also to rebuild what the NATO-sponsored terrorists destroyed, another war crime by the USA and its EU lapdogs I've covered in multiple reports before.

The new project will help generate enough energy needed for the Industrial City of Adraa, a complex of factories and businesses in the northern Damascus countryside, this will help reduce the pressure on the country's main grid allowing the now-consumed electricity by the city to be available in the public grid, excesses of power if available will also be made available to the national grid.

Assad at Adra Industrial City where Terrorists Baked 200 Infants in Bread Ovens

Adra Industrial City is one of the main industrial complexes in Syria which was thriving especially in the years 2000 - 2010 with dozens of factories opening and thousands of new jobs created every year until the year 2013 when the labor's adjacent city was stormed by US-sponsored 'freedom fighters'.

In the winter of 2013 - 2014, the US-sponsored heavily armed 'peaceful protesters' and 'freedom fighters' slaughtered police force, decapitated nurses and put their heads on pikes, baked 200 in bread ovens, raped little girls in front of their mothers then beheaded them, slit the throats of the fathers with dull knives in front of their children and left them to bleed to death, among other atrocities never known to the Syrians since the European crusaders and the Ottoman times.

Most of the victims were blue-collar workers working in the industrial city and their families, most of them moved to this residential complex not long ago seeking a better life and future, they came from all other Syrian provinces.

Yesterday morning the Syrian President Bashar Assad visited the Industrial City of Adra, some 35 kilometers to the north of Damascus, and he himself was surprised to see the industrialists who withstood the challenges and continued production during the worst times of the US-led war of terror against Syria and some of them even started new businesses there during this time.

President Assad Dismisses the Governor of the Central Bank to Boost the Economy

Syrian President Bashar Assad issued a decree removing the Governor of the Central Bank of Syria for a couple of reasons, one of which his failure in managing the exchange price of the Syrian Lira.

The Syrian economy is unlike many economies in the region and beyond, it does not rely on stock markets, it doesn't have futures and virtual deals, it is not much linked to foreign exchange, and most of all it's not pegged to the US dollar, it might be the least currency dealing with the overrated dollar, yet, there was a remarkable increase of the price of the US dollar against the Syrian Lira in a very short period of time despite the country's latest victories against the US-sponsored terrorist groups.

Syria sustained much of the unprecedented war waged against it by the world's superpowers and super-rich countries for over a decade, those countries were so vicious in the multi-layered war that some of them went bankrupt financing the war against Syria, some of them sold their dearest assets while others failed to meet the basic demands of their own people but always found extras in tens of billions of dollars and Euros to send to Al Qaeda terrorists murdering the Syrian people, to free them they say.

The drop in the exchange price of the Syrian Lira against the dollar to reach 4800 Syrian Liras for 1 US dollar was very much unrealistic, the economy was enhancing and one of the main tasks of the Central Bank's governor is to maintain confidence in the country's currency.

Two weeks prior to his dismissal, the Syrian government formed a committee to oversee the handling of the currency and within a few days, the price of the US dollar dropped to 3150 Syrian Liras. Don't let the figures fool you, a whole family of 4 in Syria can live on 100 dollars a month and they will even have outings a couple of times, most of the essentials are subsidized; it's not that much cheap, it's that much you're being robbed in your country.

There's however another reason of mismanagement that led to the removal of the governor of the Central Bank explained in this report: President Assad Dismisses Governor of Central Bank of Syria.

Syria Records Highest Number of its COVID 19 Cases: 112 in One Day

The Syrian Healthcare system is already exhausted from NATO-sponsored terrorism dumped into the country for almost a decade now with terrorists bombing hospitals and clinics and in many cases using ambulance cars stuffed with explosives, assassinating doctors and scientists, and even destroying universities and university hospitals, add to all of that crippling US and EU sanctions then this COVID 19 pandemic measures.

The Syrian Ministry of Health was reporting a daily average of 50 - 60 new cases but has seen a hike in the past days and now the daily average is succeeding 85 new cases and now reached 112 in a single day; it remains a little number compared with many countries but huge taking into consideration all the reasons mentioned above.

Total cases discovered so far since the first case discovered in March 2020 are 8,7867 cases, total deaths reached 476, and total recoveries 4,174, which leaves 4,137 active cases as of 10 December 2020.

The US regime of sanctions imposed on Syria dubbed the Caesar Act added to the European blockade renewed in last June for a further year were meant to prevent any foreign country from dealing with the Syrian government entities including the Syrian banking system and Syrian-based organizations thus impeding any Syrian government efforts in providing the basics for the Syrian people, that in the sense of the hypocrite Orwellian-driven evil minds of the US and EU officials considered as helping the Syrian people achieve democracy and free speech when neither of those is in reality enjoyed in those countries as we've seen in the Yellow Vests protests in France, the London protests they called riots, the US racism and poverty, and the control of the banksters all over the western world.

Did the Terror War on the Syrian Economy Succeed?

Syrian Economy is one of the targets of the War of Terror waged by the US and company against the Syrian people, did it survive?

Western Pentagon propagandists aka Mainstream Media pundits effortlessly try to imply that the US-led War of Terror against the Syrian people, the Syrian state and the Syrian Armed Forces, as a public uprising against dictatorship, couldn’t be any further from the truth.

Throughout the past years, we have debunked each statement trying to conceal the heinous role carried out by the USA and its European lackeys, its Gulfies servants, and its regional criminals, under an intensive unprecedented synchronized systematic propaganda, diplomatic, political, and on the streets campaigns.

We did warn them in the early days of the crisis, I remember I was tweeting, blogging, and commenting on news, like many other Syrians, warning the US and its criminal partners that Syria is... Continue reading: https://www.syrianews.cc/did-syrian-economy-survive-us-led-war-of-terror/
