EU reaches agreement to lift economic sanctions on Syria, Kallas says

EU foreign ministers on Tuesday agreed to lift economic sanctions on Syria, the bloc's foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said.

"We want to help the Syrian people rebuild a new, inclusive and peaceful Syria," Kallas said in a post on social media platform X following discussions with ministers in Brussels.

"The EU has always stood by Syrians throughout the last 14 years - and will keep doing so," Kallas said.
